This is the git repository for the Mozilla mozbase suite of python utilities.

MozBase is composed of several python packages. These packages work
together to form the basis of a test harness.

* Firefox is launched via [mozrunner](https://github.com/mozilla/mozbase/tree/master/mozrunner)
** which sets up a profile with preferences and extensions using
   [mozprofile ](https://github.com/mozilla/mozbase/tree/master/mozprofile)
** and runs the application under test using [mozprocess](https://github.com/mozilla/mozbase/tree/master/mozprocess)
* [mozInstall](https://github.com/mozilla/mozbase/tree/master/mozinstall) is used to install the test application
* A test harness may direct Firefox to load web pages. These may be
  served using [mozhttpd](https://github.com/mozilla/mozbase/tree/master/mozhttpd) for testing
* The machine environment is introspected by [mozinfo](https://github.com/mozilla/mozbase/tree/master/mozinfo)
* A test manifest may be read to determine the tests to be run. These
  manifests are processed by [ManifestDestiny](https://github.com/mozilla/mozbase/tree/master/manifestdestiny)
* For mozbile testing, the test runner communicates to the test agent
  using [mozdevice](https://github.com/mozilla/mozbase/tree/master/mozdevice)
  (Note that the canonical location of mozdevice is
  mozilla-central: http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/build/mobile/)
