Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Core :: Disability Access APIs, defect)

Description

[Fernando Herrera]

When running the whole a11y mochitest suite under linux I get timeout failure for events/test_selection.html:

(firefox-bin:2116): Gtk-CRITICAL **: IA__gtk_clipboard_set_with_data: assertion `targets != NULL' failed
527 ERROR TEST-UNEXPECTED-FAIL | chrome://mochitests/content/a11y/accessible/events/test_selection.html | Test timed out.

however if I run that single test it pass ok.

This is the relevant backtrace:

[David Bolter [:davidb] (NeedInfo me for attention)]

Does accessibility show up further in the stack? This might be a plain old widget bug. If we can get a good reduced test case, let's do that and triage over to widget.

[Fernando Herrera]

No there is nothing related to a11y here. This is the log when it's run as a single test:

Event queue:
  invoke:  'option@id='onions' node'  added to selection

registered: event type: selection within, target: [ 'select@id='toppings' node' , role: listbox, address: 0xa438dc40]

registered: event type: selection add, target: [ 'option@id='onions' node' , role: listbox option, name: 'onions', address: 0xa8fd8700]

Event type: selection within. Target: [ 'select@id='toppings' node' , role: listbox, address: 0xa438dc40]. Listeners count: 1

and this is when running the whole events/* tests:

[Karl Tomlinson (:karlt)]

Skipping the gtk_clipboard_set_with_data call when targets is NULL would silence the assertion message, but wouldn't change behavior and so wouldn't help with the timeout.
