Forking and extending SeleniumBuilder

[Inbal Gilai]

Hi,

We're trying to extend SelenuimBuilder and are having a bit of trouble getting Firefox (52.0.1) to work with our local copy.

* First we tried these instructions, but adding the seleniu...@saucelabs.com file to Firefox profile has no effect.

* We also tried installing the source code directly as a temporary add-on, but this doesn't work because "Only restartless (bootstrap) add-ons can be installed from sources".

Things work when we create an .xpi file from our local directory (though, only when using FirefoxDeveloperEdition and disabling the "require signature" option), but naturally we don't want to re-create an xpi file for every change during development. 

How would you recommend going about this?

Is there another way to make our forked copy work in Firefox without creating an xpi?

Thanks,

Inbal

Forgot to mention - we are using this repo: https://github.com/SeleniumBuilder/selenium-builder (and not the old one at https://github.com/SeleniumBuilder/se-builder).
