Yesterday afternoon I posted a somewhat cryptic tweet:
Orange ftw. Blog post to follow. http://twitpic.com/gcizx
Well, here’s the blog post.
That little orange box is the first successful run of Firebug’s FBTest test automation tool through buildbot. It’s currently posting to the MozillaTest Tinderbox.
This is phase 1. We’re currently running Firebug’s 1.5 branch out of SVN against [...]
It’s been a long haul but Firebug 1.4.0 is finally out the door.
Honza wrote a good introduction to the new activation model awhile back and you may find it useful to understand the differences between activation mechanisms in 1.3 and 1.4.
JJB writes: “Firebug 1.4 is a true community achievement. We have had contributions from many [...]
A colleague asked me how I stay on top of the constant surge of information produced by Mozilla and Firebug and whatever else I follow. The question was a good one in and of itself and I replied with my little list of things I read and said I might blog it, because it could [...]
Last week Honza and I went to San Jose, CA for Velocity 09 to hang out and take in some of the excellent presentations taking place there.
I can say without hyperbole that this was the best conference I’ve attended. The presentations were from people doing real large-scale web development and included a fair amount of [...]
Today we’ve pushed Firebug 1.4.0b1 (same as 1.4.0a31) to addons.mozilla.org. Currently, we’ve only turned it on for users of 3.5b4 and later, but this version is fully-compatible with Firefox 3.0 as well. Users of Firefox 3.0 who want to try out Firebug 1.4 should download it from getfirebug.com/releases/firebug/1.4 or disable version checking on AMO. When [...]
Thanks to everybody who showed up last Friday and ran some Firebug tests for us. It was a decent turn-out and you helped us catch some bugs.
Over the course of the day, we filed around 16 bugs, 1 of which was deemed invalid (Other Component, Weave), and 8 of those remaining were fixed since then.But [...]
Just a little reminder that we’re testing Firebug over in #testday on irc.mozilla.org. Grab the latest clean release (Firebug 1.4a25) from getfirebug.com/releases/firebug/1.4 and come on in.
Please be advised that Firebug 1.4a26 has been declared “Dead on Arrival”. Please don’t update to this version.
Join us in #testday on irc.mozilla.org and help test out the latest version of Firebug 1.4. If you’re a web developer, a browser power user or just bored and looking for a place to hang out on a Friday (between 8am and 4pm PST), grab the latest version at http://getfirebug.com/releases/firebug/1.4. (currently 1.4a25)
Our goal is to [...]
Kevin Decker’s FireDiff extension for Firebug is 0.1 old! It’s still new, but could be the beginning of a one-stop-shop for getting diffs for changes to locally-modified DOM and CSS from Firebug.
You can grab it from the above link or browse the source code in Firebug’s svn repository. You will need Firebug 1.4a17 or higher.
Curtis Bartley landed his “Tabs on Top” patch last week and John Barton pushed out a new alpha version, number 1.4a17. You can get it in the usual places on getfirebug.com/releases/firebug/1.4. The debug version is next door.
We think this makes more sense. Tabs are top-level objects and the toolbars change depending on which tab you [...]
