Tests for Mozilla's Treeherder

This repository contains tests for Mozilla's Treeherder.

Getting involved

We love working with contributors to fill out the test coverage for Treeherder, but it does require a few skills. By contributing to our test suite you will have an opportunity to learn and/or improve your skills with Python, Selenium WebDriver, GitHub, virtual environments, the Page Object Model, and more.

For some resources for learning about these technologies, take a look at our documentation on running Web QA automated tests.

All of these awesome contributors have opened pull requests against this repository.

Questions are always welcome

While we take pains to keep our documentation updated, the best source of information is those of us who work on the project. Don't be afraid to join us in irc.mozilla.org #fx-test to ask questions about our tests. We also have a mailing list available that you are welcome to join and post to.
