Nightly Tester Tools
This extension adds a few extras useful to those that regularly test nightly builds of Firefox, Thunderbird, Sunbird and Toolkit Seamonkey (Suiterunner).
Don’t forget that forcing an incompatible extension to install is risky. There are many cases where Firefox will stop working completely or behave incorrectly because an incompatible extension is being forced to work where the author never intended.
The following is a brief list of the extension’s features, for the full set of features please take a look at the features list.
- Extension compatibility fixing
- Titlebar customisation
- Build ID retrieval
- Screenshots
- Breakpad information
- Restoring tabs from previous session
- Leak log analysis
(Installs from addons.mozilla.org)

I have installed the latest nightly build of Minefield:
firefox-3.1b2pre.en-US.win32.installer.exe 04-Nov-2008 05:22 7.2M
And when I try to install nightly tester tools i get the following error message:
“Nightly Tester Tools 2.0.2 could not be installed because it is not compatible with Minefield 3.1b2pre.”
Does anybody have any idea what the problem might be?

Just installed Minefield and nightly tester tool. My add-ons work fine when forced, but Minefield “forgets” this has been done when I close the program. I have to redo the forcing every time I start Minefield. Anyone else have this happen? Anything I can do to fix it, or just wait for the next build?

Works perfectly as maxversion 3.1b7. I think the beta version of FF 3.1 shall not exceed beta7.
October 9, 2008
Mossop
iav: My add-ons are hosted at addons.mozilla.org. I can only change the version compatibility there and until they allowed using 3.1b2pre as a maxVersion it would be impossible.
V1RUS: You clearly don’t know a lot about extension development. I’d never use 3.* as a maxVersion anyway, there is no guarantee that the extension will even work in 3.1 final yet let alone 3.2 and any further versions that get released down the road.
marties: Try reading comments before posting.
AMO is now allowing 3.1b2pre so I have increased the maxVersion. I think given the junk you guys have been posting I’ll probably turn off commenting around the next version change.

October 8, 2008
bakuryu
I am not sure if 3.* works (should work) but i am using only * for em:maxversion, save it in install.rdf, repackage all the files, you can use 7-zip and create a zip archive of all the files and save with .xpi extension and then drag drop in firefox, install extension and restart Firefox and you have the extension working.
October 8, 2008
V1RUS
Sorry.
minVersion = 3.*
maxVersion = 3.*
October 8, 2008

I’ve changed install.rdf to this:
{ec8030f7-c20a-464f-9b0e-13a3a9e97384}

but it isn’t working in 3.1b2pre

Or make it by mail branches only, like “3.*”

September 26, 2008
Barry Gilmour
In the install.rdf, would you please change SeaMonkey:-
from
2.0a1pre
to
2.0.*
…
Nightly-Tools work excellent in SeaMonkey-2.0a2pre, but the 2.0a1pre-limit in the install.rdf stops a default install, auto-update, etcetera.
Many thanks for a fine product.

Hello,
perhaps this is of interest to somebody: I translated Nightly Tester Tools into German now. Seems to work OK except the Options Window that unfortunately is a bit too narrow for the variable descriptions and can not be resized by the user.
Kind regards,

Hi,

Handy extension, but it would be nice if it supported Sunbird 0.9 RC1. The current one (2.0.2) doesn’t, and as a result, most add-ons don’t work either.

It seems like the link above (Install v2.0.2) does not work with 3.1b1Pre (says not compatible), but if you go to the addon page and install it from there it works perfectly!

Themes are the types of add-on that are least likely to work in versions of Firefox that they aren’t meant for. It doesn’t surprise me one bit that you hit serious problems when you do so.
August 28, 2008
DrInferno
I don’t know if this is a bug or just acceptable loss or what not… This is an awesome tool and great to get missing themes on firefox to work on 3.0.1 when they don’t seem to want to update old ones… However when it does force them, either tabs aren’t workin or the scroll bar is missing. There are only couple that work, fine with tabs and scroll bar, just missin the close tab x on each tab, but that might b the theme (some don’t have them for some reason).

How to recover crashed tabs? I mean a sessionstore.js file was rewrited by FireFox, but a previous session is keeped in sessionstore.bak file. How to repair the sessionstore.js (firefox rewrite it if the file contain errors)?
Now I’m use FireFox 2.0.0.14 and Nightly Tester Tools 1.3. Can’t install NTT 2.0.2, because it’s incompatible with FF 2.x. (?) But FireFox 3 have problems with some very necessary extensions, like Mozilla Archive Format (MAF).
Is NTT 1.3 support session recovering?

i have one suggestion .
edit your extension with changes :
1- a function that you can edit your extension.lastappversion
2- a funtion for change che value of general.useragent.extra.firefox
3- if you can make a function that you can install .xpi files on every firefox based browseres like songbird that doesn’t accpet to install extensions .
Thanks

Hi
The extension in version 2.0.0 has marked all my extensions as COMPATIBLE when I turned to the new method of compatibility check bypass. So, there is now no way anymore for me to tell the enabled and compatible extensions from the enabled and uncompatible extensions… which is an extremely useful info in these times where all extensions and FF are moving to newer versions.
How can I go back to the previous situation?
Thanks

How I do it is take a quick peek at the source of the page (View->Source) and look for the .xpi file. Then, copy that link and pop it in your address field up top. Voila. Crappy workaround, I know, but it works.

A “rollback to previous nightly” feature would be extremely nice (not the last one released, but the last one on your system). It seems as if I am always running into bugs in nightly testing that would have me wanting to go back to the last install that was on my system. Let me know if there is already an extension for this.

Is there a way to allow Nightly Tester Tools to override AMO’s new “don’t allow the visitor to install this extension if it is not compatible with this version of Minefield”?
There’s such a narrow window between when the build identifier is compatible with what AMO supports, it means that it’s now very difficult to actually install extensions.

New Version Of Firefox That Come Out Just Like The “Minefield/4.0a1pre” ! So Far Every Time That I Want To Install Extension On New Version Of Firefox, I Always Downloaded Older Version 2,3 To Install Nightly Tester Tools, Than I Go To The New Version Of Firefox So I Can Run The Extensions With No Problem.

Look people, forcing extensions/themes to work is not recommended. It can (and does) cause MANY problems, including hitching, hanging, crashing, memory leakage, weird behaviour, dataloss and more.
NTT is what it says it is, NIGHTLY tester tools. For users of the NIGHTLY builds so they can force extensions/themes to work whilst also testing the latest daily builds of firefox. (People who test nightly builds are much more able to troubleshoot their own problems when caused by extensions forced to work).
If you force extensions/themes to work on versions of firefox/thunderbird/whatever then you are asking for trouble. Big trouble. If you really want that extension/theme to work then you best email the author and get them to update it and test it. NTT is not a magic bullet to suddenly make your incompatible extensions suddenly work.

I love this extension! This extension removes the only annoyance I have ever had with Firefox - that crap of extensions being "incompatible"! Thank you for providing this solution for all of us!

I get a compatibility error when I try to install this on the latest Thunderbird version, 1.5.0.9. Is this only meant to use on the 2.0b version of Thunderbird?

ATTN: Seamonkey Users
Use Version 0.7.9.11 available from ‘Version History’ for the Moz App suite!
This will work with the latest (alpha / beta / rc) version of SeaMonkey…

This extension Is great thanks to this extension the LCARS star Trek theme works and it said it was only for seamonkey but it worked
so if theres any Star trek fans out there try this extension
because you can set the options so the compatibility checker is off
that mean even seamonkeys themes will work
signed a greatfull star trek fan

It installed just fine in the 12/16/06 3.0 a1 (Minefield) release for Mac OS X Tiger, but the Tools->Nightly Tester Tools option menu was missing, and the Tools->Add-ons->Extensions->Nightly Tester Tools Preferences window failed to launch when clicked. However, other extensions preference menus would launch leading me to believe it’s just this one.
Overall though, I loved it in past versions. A new installation from today works just fine in the latest stable build (2006101022, wasn’t it?) for Mac OS X Tiger.

I’m very pleased to say that I’ve re-acquired the most wonderful ability at making the seemingly incompatible compatible for Firefox 2.0’s most current up-to-date release Joy! Rapture!

I tried it whit HalloFF
https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/3522/
and it didn’t work very well…
however it indeed forced it to run!!!
it’s very sad that some extensions stop being suported each time a new firefox gets out… this extensions tries to fix that problem… you’re on the good path… but indeed it could be a lot better and fix all the incompatibility problems…
keep up the good work
(i only tried it whit HalloFF theme!!! it may work whit other themes and extensions)

Awesome! I tried to mod the Greenshift theme to work with v2 but couldn’t get the max version number to stick. I downloaded Nightly Tester tools and 2 clicks later my favorite theme was back. Thanks mate, Brilliant!

Could you add support for Sunbird. It would be much appreciated.

In principle, these tools look brilliant, avoiding the over-pickiness of installing Ffx extensions.
But ….. the extension does not install completely. The Nightly Tester Tools sub-menu and the build identifier buttons are visible/available, but nothing has been added to the Ffx extensions installer. So I still cannot install extensions not built for Ffx 2.0. Help would be appreciated ^_^

I really miss the ability to selectively enable/disable the version compatibility check for extensions. With the new 1.2 version, it is now installing every extension I try without even informing me that there might be a problem. When I first installed NTT 1.2 and enabled the feature, ALL of my disabled extensions were enabled — breaking the install. It is much more productive to selectively enable them as necessary. Please either bring back the checkbox or pop up a warning for each incompatible extension being enabled.

Use this to enable Session Manager in Firefox 2.0! I would think twice about upgrading if it weren’t for this easy way to activate old extensions.
Sailor Dark, try removing extensions.rdf from your profile dir (http://www.mozilla.org/support/firefox/edit#profile)

I love this plugin, it makes some of my favourite firefox plugins that haven’t been updated for FF2.0 work wonderfully.
Keep up the great work.

This extension used to be able to override compatability on the extension download dialog, now its turned on/off via extension preferences. Can you put the old method back in ?

Nevermind the last comment. The Version history explains the issue. However I might suggest rewording the language in the options menu "Disable add-on compatibility checking" is much less concise than "allow all incompatible extensions".

I am running FireFox 2.0 and for a couple weeks Nightly Tester Tools worked always giving the option to use it to force download/installation of themes and extensions. Suddenly today, I am no longer given the option to download anything using Nightly Tester Tools to force the download. Anybody else see this?
