How to set up Talos for testing at home

Prerequisites

1. Python 2.5
2. Pyyaml
3. PyWin32 Extensions (if this is to be run on a windows box)
4. Standalone V1.1
5. Nightly firefox builds (grab the appropriate type for your OS)

Set Up

1. unzip standaloneV1_1.zip
2. unzip/install your nightly firefox build
3. in the talos directory
   • edit sample.config, change the path to firefox to be the appropriate path to the firefox executable of the nightly build that you just installed

Testing

1. in the talos directory run 'python run_tests.py sample.config'

Results

1. results from all the tests should be found in talos/output directory.

(On a MacBook Pro, the default test configuration takes about 35 minutes to run with a nightly Firefox 3 build.)
