    make run

  

You can build an xpi:

You can run the tests:

    make test

  

If you want to run (using make run) in a specific profile:

    OWA_PROFILE=/path/to/firefox/profile make run

  

Tests cannot be run in a specific profile.

Prepare your firefox profile

-----------------------------

You probably want a test firefox profile so open up the [Profile Manager](http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_manager).

In the Mac:

    /Applications/Firefox.app/Contents/MacOS/firefox -ProfileManager

On Windows:

    firefox.exe -P

In the profile manager, create a profile with the name `fxsharetest`, then exit the profile manager.
