Note: For the most up-to-date list of supported versions of Mozilla Firefox, see the UFT One Product Availability Matrix.
UFT One communicates with the Micro Focus UFT Agent Firefox Extension to test Web applications running in Mozilla Firefox. This topic describes how to install and enable the extension in your Firefox browser.
Prerequisite
Your browser policy must allow you to install browser extensions. Otherwise, see Known Issues - Mozilla Firefox.
Firefox versions and UFT One extension support
The Micro Focus UFT Agent Extension for Firefox is supported from Firefox versions 57 and higher.
Testing on earlier versions of Firefox requires installing the legacy Functional Testing Agent extension. Mozilla no longer supports legacy extensions. Therefore, UFT One's legacy agent is supported only on Firefox ESR versions 38-53.
