Test Pilot Add-on Environment

#Overview

Test Pilot has a few different environments. The purpose of these is for testing different functionality.

Below are the environments for the website:

ENVIRONMENT testpilot.env URL
Local local https://example.com:8000/
Development dev https://testpilot.dev.mozaws.net/
Stage stage https://testpilot.stage.mozaws.net/
Production production https://testpilot.firefox.com/

Since the website talks to the add-on, it's important that the two environments are configured the same while testing, and developing.

#How to change your add-on environment

about:config Method

  1. Go to about:config
  2. Edit the preference testpilot.env to one of these values:
  • local
  • dev
  • stage
  • production

  2. Ensure you have the Extension Auto-Installer add-on enabled.
  3. In a terminal go to the groundcontrol/ directory
  4. Run npm install and npm start
  5. You should now see a new button on your Firefox toolbar
  6. Click the toolbar button and select a new icon to change the environment
  • from top to bottom they are: production, stage, dev, local

That's it! Now, click the Test Pilot add-on's toolbar button and you should see experiments from that environment
