Details

Steps to reproduce:
- Open up Spotify
- Run the following command with cfx:
cfx test -f test-content-script:test\ Cross\ Domain\ Iframe -b /Applications/FirefoxNightly.app -o

Observed results:
The following error message is displayed:
.System JS : ERROR (null):0 - uncaught exception: 2147746065
console.log: addon-sdk: [JavaScript Error: "uncaught exception: 2147746065"]

The test fails to run to completion

Expected results:
The test runs to completion.
The problem seems to be that Spotify uses a port that is also used by some of the SDK tests. If we can't make the tests run to completion if that port is occupied, it would at least help to give a more informative error message, preferably something actionable like "please check if port xxxx is open".
Sorry we won't be releasing any new versions of cfx, jpm is the replacement https://www.npmjs.com/package/jpm
