1261745 - Test functionality in layout/base/tests/chrome/test_bug420499.xul under e10s

Status: NEW

(Core :: DOM: Selection, defect, P5)

Description

[Chris Pearce [:cpearce (Not reading bugmail)]]

layout/base/tests/chrome/test_bug420499.xul tests that when a content text box is focused the caret appears, and when a xul pop up opens the caret disappears, and when the pop up disappears, the caret re-appears in its previous location, and then that if a tooltip pops up, the caret remains visible.

chrome mochitests and xul aren't going to make it into the brave new e10s world, and it seems that having a regression test for the behaviour of the caret between the content/chrome processes is a good idea.

So we should rewrite layout/base/tests/chrome/test_bug420499.xul to test the caret functionality when content and chrome menus and tooltips are activated using something other than a chrome mochitest.

Bulk-downgrade of unassigned, untouched DOM/Storage bug's priority.

If you have reason to believe, this is wrong, please write a comment and ni :jstutte.
