# create-firefox-profile

**Create a temporary Firefox profile folder for test runs. Extracted from [`osx-firefox`](https://github.com/juliangruber/osx-firefox) and [`linux-firefox`](https://github.com/juliangruber/linux-firefox), to be used for `windows-firefox` (and then the others too).**

profile({ proxy: 'http://example.local' }, function (err, folder) {
