Our web application is accessed by universities, hospitals, doctors and researchers having diverse hardware, operating systems and browsers. We need to be able to test new versions of our application with many versions of browsers. We would like to support multiple versions of FireFox. How do we get access to older versions of FireFox?

Thank you for your reply Vivek it is most helpful.

Would you happen to know where I could find the end of support dates for currently supported versions of FireFox.

Many thanks Ken

I'm really sorry, I'm not sure of that. From the official front pages, it looks like only 3.6.x https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all-older.html and 8.0.1 https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/fx/ are supported as of now. I'm sure there would be a better clarification from the forum contributors here.

There are 2 supported version on the release channel:
Firefox 3.6 (enddate unknown, probably when Mozilla starts building Long Support Versions) and Firefox 8 (support ends when Firefox 9 is released - december 20).
Firefox 4, 5 ,6 and 7 do not get security updates and should not be used.
