Details

MozMill is basically an event dispatcher class that depends on a
number of free-form event types:

 - mozmill.endTest
 - mozmill.setTest
 ...

However, these aren't documented or explained anywhere. They should be.

Not actively working on this.  I'm more than happy to explain the event system to whoever would be interested in doing this. :whimboo, would you be willing to take as a mentor?

As it can be seen at the given URL we have a couple of events which get transmitted through jsbridge. All of those we will have to document. Most likely the best location is here:

I would be happy to take this on with some help on the event system from someone more experienced.
Hi Chase. You are welcome to help. Please see the before mentioned URLs in how to get started. If you have further questions don't hesitate to ask or stop by on IRC in our #automation channel. Thanks!

Chase, did you get the information you need to work on this?  This bug is currently assigned to you and we would like to make sure it is available to others if you are not going to get a chance to work on it.

:whimboo, given the fact that Mozmill is transitioning to marionette due to e10s, is this bug still valid?

Good find. No it is not anymore. We shouldn't spend time on it.
