Whose control has your browser been under?

#188 Post by Burunduk »

A small addition to the Firefox 24 release notes just FYI.

Firefox 24 comes with a (disabled) built-in remote access tool called Marionette. It is intended for some vague SocialAPI tests this is why security or performance is a minor concern.

Bugzilla: Add --marionette CLI to enable Marionette on all Firefox builds
MDN wrote: Marionette is available in all Firefox builds; it is not enabled, however, unless you launch Firefox with the -marionette command-line argument.[1]
MDN wrote: What is Marionette?

Marionette is an automation driver. It can remotely drive either the UI or the internal JavaScript of a program built on the Gecko platform, such as Firefox or Firefox OS. Marionette runs as a server on your test machine, allowing you to connect to that server and remotely drive tests and send commands. Its goal is to replicate what Selenium does for the browser: to enable the tester to have the ability to send commands to a remote test machine.

Marionette shares much of the same API as Selenium/WebDriver, and makes writing tests easy. You have the API to drive user actions like page navigation and element clicking, but also the ability to execute arbitrary JavaScript scripts, allowing for a greater variety of tests.


When would I use it?

If you want to utilize user interaction with chrome or content, Marionette is the tool you're looking for, but it is also capable of doing much more! Marionette lives in both the chrome and content space of a gecko process, so it is capable of running commands in any of these spaces.

This means you can run any JS script in chrome or in content. This is a powerful feature, enabling a user to do anything from inspecting the content DOM of a Firefox instance running in a remote machine to executing a script that changes profile preferences in privileged chrome space.[2]

Just had the experience of old and new installs of Lupu_526 going through a sequence of FF updates - variously something like 5 > 12 > 17 > 25 in the space of 15min!

Every time I checked Help to see what version it was now, it had started updating again...

Anyway, if mozilla hadn't changed there numbering convention, 25 might only be 3.8.76 perhaps!

Mine failed on the update from 24 to 25 for some reason.
I need to investigate when I get time at home.

Yes that did happen to me too after me
started anew with a new savefile
and the default FF where way down the list.

So that seems a normal behavior that sometimes get halted
so why it fails would be good to know. Could be addons
that has some glitch? Just me guessing
some year ago I usually failed to get latest it always stopped
at 11 or similar and never got above nor sure how I solved it.

I think it had to do with me having the .mozilla directory on the HD
instead of in the savefile so these competed with each other ?????

FF-25 updated nicely on Puppy Slacko-55XL.
Help search on mozilla dot org for "Marionette" had zero links, I am suspicious.

Any method of purging this Broswer Component, or "commenting-out"?

Had not heard of it before. Is it a known addon. if you look at
Tools - Addons - Extensions
is it there then you should be able to delete it?

what do you get from reading links like this then? :)

Would these not explain the purpose and how to change permissions and things?

does we all ahve it without knowing? how did you find out you had it?

Firefox official releases

#197 Post by Monsie »

Firefox is no longer being updated in Debian Squeeze. Firefox 24 is the last update. I am not sure why. While Squeeze is old stable it has not reached end of life status yet. I am just wondering if there is any limitations re: Firefox working on systems with an older kernel. If so, then one might expect problems with Firefox updates working with some of the Puppy releases with an older or similar kernel such as Wary... will have to test it and see.

nooby... burunduk's posting on page 13. On my machine it is installed, but not running. I get nervous a little about remote controlling a computer. I can live with it as long as its not running. The Tools window can disable it.
Things have changed a lot since my FF3 install, about: help is not the way to get info lol, its a full menu now. (If it ain't broke don't fix it, FF3 is no longer supported at many websites now, so Heeeeerrrrrsss Puppy! That would be Thorium doing the happy dance)

It was lack of space in the personal storage. I'd spotted the message flash up some time ago. I cleared some garbage out and increased it anyway.
Problem solved.

Could they install it behind so I fail to see it?

Anyway. I have Lupu 528-005 so maybe that protect me :)
