### AI overview

This tutorial explains how to use Selenium and Firefox WebDriver to access pages with invalid or self-signed SSL certificates during automated tests. It describes the Firefox 52 and Selenium 3 requirements and shows how to enable insecure certificate acceptance with the acceptInsecureCerts capability.

### Source excerpt

Interacting with insecure SSL pages (eg. self-signed) in an automated test written for Selenium is an important feature. Especially when tests are getting run against locally served test pages. Under those circumstances you might never get fully secured websites served to the browser instance under test. To still allow running your tests with a successful test result, Selenium can instruct the browser to ignore the validity check, which will simply browse to the specified site without bringing up the SSL error page. Since the default driver for Firefox was switchedContinue readingUsing Selenium and webdriver to interact with insecure SSL pages in Firefox

### AI overview

A Q1 2016 review of Firefox desktop automation work describes Mozharness and Build System changes, a Firefox UI test task in Taskcluster, and the move of Firefox UI tests and their harness to mozilla-central.

### Source excerpt

Today is the last day of Q1 2016 which means time to review what I have done during all those last weeks. When I checked my status reports it's kinda lot, so I will shorten it a bit and only talk about the really important changes. Build System / Mozharness After I had to dig into mozharness to get support for Firefox UI Tests during last quarter I have seen that more work had to be done to fully support tests which utilize Nightly or Release builds of Firefox.

### AI overview

A Q4 2015 review of work to move Firefox UI tests into mozilla-central, run them with mozharness in mozmill-ci, fix failures and regressions, split the repository into packages, and improve related test tooling.

### Source excerpt

The last quarter of 2015 is gone and its time to reflect what happened in Q4. In the following you will find a full overview again for the whole quarter. It will be the last time that I will do that. From now on I will post in shorter intervals to specific topics instead of covering everything. This was actually a wish from our latest automation survey which I want to implement now. I hope you will like it. So during the last quarter my focus was completely on gettingContinue readingReview of automation work - Q4 2015
