Comment (by micahlee):
Over the summer Lisa Yao, our Google Summer of Code intern, helped write a
bunch of code to do automatic ruleset tests to test for mixed content.
Originally it was a mozilla-central mochitest, then moved into a
standalone Firefox extension, and now finally it's been merged into the
HTTPS Everywhere master branch.
I've updated the readme file with how to run the tests:
> You can run ruleset tests by opening about:config and changing
extensions.https_everywhere.show_ruleset_tests to true. Now when you open
the HTTPS Everywhere context menu there will be a "Run HTTPS Everywhere
Ruleset Tests" menu item.
>
> When you run the tests, be prepared to let your computer run them for a
really long time.
The tests take over your browser by opening a ton of tabs, waiting for
them to load, and seeing if the Firefox MCB gets triggered. A lot more
work can be done on them, and they can be used to detect a lot more than
just mixed content. But that's all they do for now.
