First download regression.zip and unzip in the location of your choice (like the Desktop). Then follow the instructions for your platform:

Windows - option 1: Command Prompt

  • Install Python 2.6.4
  • Install PyWin32
  • Install Setup Tools
  • Open the Command Prompt program (under Accessories)
  • Enter this line into the prompt: path = %PATH%;C:\Python26\Scripts;C:\Python26
  • Navigate the the regression folder, if this folder is on your Desktop, you can do this by entering cd Desktop\regression into the prompt.
  • Now enter the command: install-windows.bat
  • You can now run regression.py from the Command Prompt:
python regression.py -g 2009-03-12 -b 2009-10-14


Note: if you don't want to have to say path = %PATH%;C:\Python26;%PATH%;C:\Python26\Scripts everytime you open the command prompt, you can add C:\Python26\Scripts;C:\Python26 to your Path environment variable through the Control Panel (usually under advanced system settings)

Windows - option 2: Mozilla Build

  • Run Mozilla Build. this can usually be done by running C:\mozilla-build\start-l10n.bat
  • navigate to the unzipped regression folder from this command line, for example: cd Desktop/regression
  • execute the install script by running the command:./install-windows.sh This will install SetupTools, PyWin32, and some Python modules, one installation window should pop up at the end. Note: this will change the registry entry for your default Python path, if you don't want to do this, please use the Command Prompt instructions.
  • you can now run regression.py with the command:
python regression.py -g 2009-03-12 -b 2009-10-14

Ubuntu

Run these commands:

sudo apt-get install python-setuptools
easy_install mozmill
