Project Name
JavaScript Unit Testing
Project Description
Use an existing unit testing framework (or create one) and demonstrate its use by writing a collection of unit tests that fully test a browser feature of your choosing. The framework will provide decent setup and teardown code that will enable the programmer to start the browser, run the tests, report pass/fail and shutdown the browser.

- but there is no documentation at all in lxr.mozilla.org. when I tried to find to find BMSVC.createBookmark(), I got this BMSVC.createBookmark(aName, aURL, null, null, aCharSet, null), and I don't know what parameter I should use.
- The only think I can do is trying, trying, trying ...
- this is my first unit testing attempt.
- testing addbookmark was working, but it didn't show in the Bookmarks Manager; it will show when I try to search. In google news, one guy had same problem: http://groups.google.com/group/mozilla.dev.tech.xul/tree/browse_frm/month/2006-08/93a6398b0e18ea51?rnum=151&_done=%2Fgroup%2Fmozilla.dev.tech.xul%2Fbrowse_frm%2Fmonth%2F2006-08%3F

- Had really hard time on trying to understand how to build and run a test case. This involves the following technologies that I had never learned before:
- XUL
- install.rdf
- chrome.manifest
- Extension Wizard generator
- Had read the links from Dave, it's very interesting, it's called test_nodelist.
- Learning how to build an extension for fox...
- Collected related topics and examples.
