Yes, as I've often noted, it is more effective to ask the question you
want answered. I don't always guess right.

There's not a lot of built in support for this beyond importing bookmarks.
However, the procedures have been discussed extensively on this list and
elsewhere.

There's always

<http://www.os2bbs.com/os2news/Warpzilla.html>

which has a convenient link to

http://gemal.dk/mozilla/files.html

>Any tips or references will be appreciated.

Since, you are testing, you want to copy rather than share, sof for
bookmarks, just copy them into the profile directory. The passwords are
stored in a file with a random name and a .s extension. Just overwrite
the copy in the test file with the version from your production profile.

If you need the cookies, copy hostperm and cookies.txt.
