Seen this lately in our tests only on Windows while running them in Mozmill CI. Especially test_windows.py does not call switch_to() for the browser window when another before opened window gets closed. That means Marionette hangs around with a reference to a non-existent window and reports a failure that this.browser cannot be found.

Not sure why this only happens on Windows. David, do you have an idea?

I think we should not do magic calls to switch_to() in our BaseWindow.close() method, but request the test to explicitly call this method.

Most likely we don't need that cause it smells like a regression from bug 1169798 too. I will stop investigating possible fixes until the patch on the mentioned bug has been landed and tested.

This was clearly the regression in Marionette which is causing this failure. The code we currently have does not require a change to work. Once the patch on bug 1169798 landed on all affected branches, our tests will pass again. This is a WONTFIX.
