Firefox DevTools in Firefox Firefox DevTools is a Firefox feature that we will use to inspect the HTML elements of the web application under test. It will provide us the name of the element that our Selenese command would act upon. Mozilla Firefox and Mozilla Thunderbird store a variety of configuration data (bookmarks, cookies, contacts etc.) in internally managed SQLite databases. Until Firefox version 57 ('Firefox Quantum'), there was a third-party add-on that used the code supporting this functionality to provide a user interface for managing arbitrary SQLite databases.

Description
MZHistoryView is a small utility that reads the history data file (history.dat)of Firefox/Mozilla/Netscape Web browsers, and displays the list of all visited Web pagesin the last days. For each visited Web page, the following information is displayed:URL, First visit date, Last visit date, Visit counter, Referrer, Title, and Host name.You can also easily export the history data to text/HTML/Xml file.
Notice:
The name of this tool was changed from MozillaHistoryView to MZHistoryView due to the obsession of Mozilla Foundation people with their registered trademark. I have received a threatening letter from the attorney of Mozilla Foundation saying that using the 'Mozilla' word inside the name of my software infringes their trademark rightsand demanding that I'll change the name of this tool.In order to avoid from any trouble in the future, I decided to change the name of this tool to MZHistoryView.
