(from bug 1382588, please read that bug for the entire context).

The browser-chrome test browser_startup_images.js is marked as debug-only in the test manifest (https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/rev/5ce320a16f6998dc2b36e30458131d029d107077/browser/base/content/test/performance/browser.ini#9). It gets skipped on Windows 7 automation for debug builds.

This has led to backouts already because people can't see the test failing on try and assume they're covered and ready to land. I've written the test and I'm getting pinged by people who assume my test is flaky and are annoyed by having been backed out. It's not fun.

Thanks for investigating!

Might be related to --artifact?
The debug build used for this test job comes from the following task:

https://tools.taskcluster.net/groups/HsMm3HwRQR2V_jLKXXyNyg/tasks/ZeZNETzRQJCFpBVnEaB1uQ/details

And the problem here is that the mozinfo.json contains "debug: false":

https://queue.taskcluster.net/v1/task/ZeZNETzRQJCFpBVnEaB1uQ/runs/0/artifacts/public/build/target.mozinfo.json

This makes it a dupe of bug 1388012.
