== So what do I do == | |||
# Download the test suite | |||
# Run it in Firefox 3 | |||
# Understand what the test files are, hopefully they are HTML | |||
# Wrap the mochitest structure around those files (the manifest.json, the controlling HTML file etc) | |||
# Add makefiles to each directory that adds each file in that directory to _TEST_FILES variable and uses a libs target to copy them out to the mochitest location in the object dir. There are sample [http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla/source/dom/tests/mochitest/ajax/scriptaculous/test/unit/Makefile.in makefiles] throughout the tree. | |||
# Wrap all of this effort into a patch and attach it to a bug in bugzilla. | |||
