How do I get Firefox to check addon compatibility *before proceeding* the update?
Hi, this is a continuation of question https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/942767
Is there a way to avoid breaking our workflow by checking installed Add-ons compatibility with the Firefox new release *before* updating?
- [Add-on Compatibility Report for Firefox <release>](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/compatibility/) can't be used for this, as it would needs lots of manual work, and does list a fraction of the Firefox Add-ons eco-system. Also it logicaly lags (eg Firefox 36 atm three days after v37 was released).
- [Is It Compatible?](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/addon/is-it-compatible/) stopped working with Firefox 30: last version from 2011 (was never validated).
Optionnaly
- are there other ways to help achieving this than installing [Add-on Compatibility Reporter](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/addon/add-on-compatibility-reporter/)
Atm I backup the whole profiles and keep the previous Firefox package. Allows me to downgrade to the previous release in case of trouble with limited hassle.
