How to test unlimited Firefox extension?

Question

Firefox 43 now provides signature additions. I don’t understand how to test and debug the extension in these versions of Firefox before signing the extension.

If I am writing a new extension, how do I go about testing an unsigned version in recent versions of Firefox? Is there an explicit way to disable forced signing for developers?

Answer 1

Define "latest version"?

• In FF43-FF45 or developer release / night you can set xpinstall.signatures.requiredto false inabout:config
• In FF45 (currently the developer version), you can download the addon as temporary in about:debugging
• FF46 xpinstall.signatures.required .
