Tips/Tricks
- Loading the
test.htmlpage may read, write or clear localStorage. To avoid having to choose between running tests and preserving your existing messages, keys, and other extension data, much of the test suite can be run by starting a local webserver in the repository root, e.g.python -m SimpleHTTPServer. You can then access the test page athttp://0.0.0.0:8000/test.html.
