1250983 - Add mochitest to ensure the "Forget" button correctly deletes all data from all user contexts.

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1270338

(Core :: DOM: Security, defect, P2)

Description

[Dave Huseby [:huseby]]

The Forget button is designed to delete all cached data stored in the most recent X amount of time.  It needs to delete all cached data stored in all user contexts.  This bug is for writing tests and investigating that it behaves correctly.

Should this be in a different component, Dave?

Is this different from Bug 1238183?

Comment 4

[Tanvi Vyas[:tanvi]]

This bug is for the "forget" button that forgets about all sites in all user contexts for the last X minutes.  

This is different than bug 1238183, which is about forgetting all data about a particular site instead of forgetting data about all sites within a certain time frame.

Kamil, can you test how the Forget button behaves now?  If you are logged into an account with your work context, then hit the forget button, are you still logged into the account in your work context?

It looks like the Forget button is correctly removing everything, including anything that was loaded in a container. I tested this for around 3-4 hours and didn't run into any issues of data being left behind once the forget button was used.. Went through the following test cases:

* logged into several different websites using all four containers and instantly selected "forget five minutes"
* logged into several different websites using all four containers and waited 5 minutes
** ensured I was still logged into all the websites once selecting "forget five minutes"
** ensured everything was removed once I selected "forget two hours"
* logged into several different websites using all four containers and waited 2 hours
** ensured I was still logged into all the websites once selecting "forget five minutes"
** ensured I was still logged into all the websites once selecting "forget 2 hours"
** ensured everything was removed once I selected "forget 24 hours"

I also tried different combinations of having several containers in a separate window, and several containers in the same window.

Once the "Forget" button was pressed, I went through the following and ensured everything was cleared:
* Cookies under about:preferences#privacy were removed
* Cache under about:cache was being removed
* History is being removed

As per email discussion, since this seems to be working as intended we can move this to a oa-testing bug, drop priority to p2 and focus on others first.

I uploaded a test patch in bug 1270338 to ensure a Sanitizer cleans up cookies of every origin attributes.  This bug could be a duplicate of that one.

Here's where the forget button uses the Sanitizer.
