1092330 - B2G fails to boot for webapi tests on master branch

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Firefox OS Graveyard :: Certification Suite, defect)

Description

[Jonathan Griffin (:jgriffin)]

On master branch (but not v2.0), when running against a 2.0 Flame, the cert suite reboots the device prior to running the webapi tests, but Gaia fails to load during this reboot, and so all of the webapi tests fail.

It isn't immediately clear why this happens.

Comment 1

[Jonathan Griffin (:jgriffin)]

Hitting CTRL+C to abort the (failing) webapi tests causes the cert suite to reboot the phone again and proceed normally through the cert tests and the webapi tests.

Comment 2

[Jonathan Griffin (:jgriffin)]

This occurs because of this:

https://github.com/mozilla-b2g/fxos-certsuite/blob/master/certsuite/harness.py#L418

Basically, this navigate() command causes to navigate "out" of Gaia, and the following go_back() command doesn't cause us to reload Gaia correctly.

We will either need to attempt this navigation inside a test app (or the browser app), or we'll need to restart B2G (instead of calling go_back()) afterwards.
