Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(Remote Protocol :: Marionette, defect)

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Fedora; Linux x86_64; rv:43.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/43.0
Build ID: 20151229124331

Steps to reproduce:

run test_session.py

Could this be string comparison problem in the python code?


Actual results:

TEST-START | test_session.py TestSession.test_we_can_set_the_session_id
TEST-UNEXPECTED-FAIL | test_session.py TestSession.test_we_can_set_the_session_id | AssertionError: u'{081d2ddf-bfee-49e8-972d-9a77eeaf680d}' != 'ILoveCheese'

Traceback (most recent call last):

Expected results:

the test should pass

You need to provide more information.  Are you running this test against a local build of a recent central tip?  The test passes for me both locally and in automation.

I'm running this against 38.5 esr as noted in "Version: 38 branch"

Comment 3

[Andreas Tolfsen ❲:ato❳]

The tests in-tree are only supposed to be compatible with central tip.

In this case I assume Gecko 38 doesn’t have the necessary Marionette server code for setting the session ID.
