This extension adds a few extras useful to those that regularly test nightly builds of Firefox, Thunderbird and the Application Suite.



This extension now works on branch builds of Firefox and Thunderbird.

• Extension compatibility fixing
  
• Titlebar customisation
  
• Build ID retrieval
  
• Screenshots
  
• Talkback/Breakpad information
  
• Restoring tabs from previous session
  
• Leak log analysis

FEATURES

• Allows you to install incompatible extensions (experimental).
  
• Allows you to force the application to believe an extension is compatible with the current version and enable it. (Only works on recent builds of Firefox and Thunderbird, branch and trunk since 2006-08-20.)
  
• Adds a menu item to copy the build identifier and a list of installed extensions to the clipboard.
  
• Adds a menu item to let you insert the build identifier into the current text box.
  
• Adds a toolbar button to let you insert the build identifier into the current text box (Not supported in the Application Suite).
  
• Lets you customise the title bar to include the build identifier and other information.
  
• Provides talkback integration allowing you to quickly view recent incidents as well as a sidebar that shows all incidents still on your machine (you may be surprised at just how many there are).
  
• Lets you customise the title bar to include the build identifier and other information.
  
• Adds a simple interface for parsing nspr log files for leaks.
  
• Lets you take a screenshot of any open window and save it as an image, copy it to the clipboard or submit it to Imageshack (not yet fully functional in cairo builds).

CHANGES
2.0.2
- This version adds a more controllable method for overriding add-on compatibility. Instead of needing to use the indiscriminate built in application settings I recommend switching to using Nightly Tester Tools to give you the choice which add-ons you override the compatibility for.
1.3b2
- Fix update url re-enabling auto-updates.
- Fix a shutdown leak involving the crash database loaders.
- Fix breakpad uuid copying
1.2.1
- Fix cairo detection for third party builds
- Add Sunbird support. I don't use sunbird so you'd better message me if you see anything broken because I won't see it.
1.2
- Screenshot support now includes timed capture and allows copying the image to the clipboard.
- Removed extension installation support in favour of a simple preference in the settings to allow all incompatible extensions.
1.0.4
- last version to support Firefox/Thunderbird 1.5
0.7.9.11
- last version to support Firefox/Thunderbird 1.0 and Mozilla Suite
Changelog

KNOWN ISSUES
Both Nightly Tester Tools and MR Tech Local Install (MR Tech Toolkit) have an option for user to specify a custom window title. If both extensions are installed, please do one of the following or they may conflict.
- disable the window title option on one extension and enable it in the other
- enable it in both extensions provided the exact same title is used
