Tinderbox (software)

From Free net encyclopedia

Tinderbox is Mozilla's detective tool, which allows developers to manage software builds and to correlate build failures on various platforms and configurations with particular code changes.

An automated build tool is another way to describe Tinderbox. It's written in Perl. While there are no official releases (as of March 2005), there is an alpha-quality tarball of Tinderbox3 available at Mozilla developer John Keiser's Tinderbox 3 page.
