1059381 - SimpleTest.requestCompleteLog does not work as expected for mochitest-browser

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

Description

[Chris Manchester (:chmanchester)]

Trying to debug bug 1041594, SimpleTest.requestCompleteLog() was found not to work as expected. I'm not sure if this is a regression from mochitest structured logging, or if this was ever supported from mochitest-browser, but it needs to work.

:akachkach, were you looking into this one? How's it going?

Comment 2

[Ahmed Kachkach [:akachkach]]

I was looking at something related (passing the logger to SimpleTest to make all test logging from there), but that doesn't seem to be easily doable.

I wonder if requestCompleteLog worked before because some of the logging was done in Tester and other mochitest-browser classes, but in any case we have to fix this.

Did you have a temporary patch for this? (I remember jmaher mentionned that he started getting complete log results with something

I think jmaher took --quiet out of the in tree config to work around this. I guess I'll look into this next week if you don't beat me to it :)

I only too --quiet out of the in tree stuff in my local patch queue

There was a warning in the code about name collisions, so here's an extensive try run:

there is no need for a newline here, lets just keep it as two lines.

could we not just call self.simpletest.requestCompleteLog() ?  I think this is more complete, but if we change one in the future we could overlook this.

Structured logging (particularly the rewrite of buffering logic from JavaScript to Python) made SimpleTest's base requestCompleteLog incompatible with browser chrome tests, getting us into this mess in the first place.

Fixed nits. I'm intentionally including the change to browser_pass.js.
