1184883 - gaiatest hangs with testcase involving installed_apps

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Firefox OS Graveyard :: Gaia::UI Tests, defect)

Description

[Gary Kwong [:gkw] [:nth10sd] (NOT official MoCo now)]

Attachment: testcase.py

Run the testcase using:

gaiatest --address=localhost:2828 --testvars=testVars.json --restart testcase.py

gaiatest hangs at the line containing "apps.installed_apps".

I checked that this testcase fails on FxOS 2.1 onwards with gaiatest 0.26/0.32, but works on FxOS 1.2 <= versions <= 2.0, with gaiatest 0.26.

(The testcase throws when using FxOS 2.0 with gaiatest 0.32)

I asked on IRC and folks mentioned that we might be lacking the following line (it's JS though):

https://github.com/mozilla-b2g/fxos-certsuite/blob/master/mcts/webapi_tests/app_management.js#L121

Not sure how that maps to Python Marionette / gaiatest. David, feel free to move this on to the right person if you're not the right one.

$ cat testVars.json
{
    "acknowledged_risks": true,
    "skip_warning": true

I would recommend wherever possible to use gaiatest installed directly from the gaia branch under test rather than relying on the PyPI packages, which are updated on an adhoc basis. Also, the correct PyPI packages for v2.0 and v2.1 are:

https://pypi.python.org/pypi/gaiatest-v2.0
https://pypi.python.org/pypi/gaiatest-v2.1

WORKSFORME when I used the appropriate gaiatest module for the corresponding FxOS version as per comment 2.
