1405875 - Remove "Regression-Test" code from the layout debugger

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Core :: Layout, defect, P3)

Description

[Eric Rahm [:erahm]]

The RTest code in layout-debugger uses RDF [1] and we'd like to get rid of that. In order to do this we should just remove all "Regression-Test" related code from the layout debugger.

Attachment: Remove old regression testing UI from layout debugger

The tests that were run using this UI were removed in bug 652192.  (They
did before-patch vs. after-patch comparisons of frame dumps, and didn't
actually have pass/fail state.)

This removes the C++ and IDL for the UI removed in the previous patch.

Attachment: Remove debug file mechanism from printing

This was used only by nsRegressionTester::DumpFrameModel, which was
removed in the previous patch.

Attachment: Remove unused contentViewerFile property from browser and tabbrowser XBL bindings

This helps to make nsIContentViewerFile unused so that we can remove it
later in this patch series.

Attachment: Remove unneeded QueryInterface to nsIContentViewerFile

nsDocumentViewer is the only implementation of both nsIContentViewer and
of nsIContentViewerFile.

This helps to make nsIContentViewerFile unused so that we can remove it
later in this patch series.

Attachment: Remove now-unused nsIContentViewerFile interface

This became unused as a result of the previous two patches, and the
earlier removal of nsRegressionTester::DumpFrameModel.

Attachment: Remove old dump/compare regression data methods on frames, and nsIFrameUtil interface and implementation

These became unused as a result of the removal of nsRegressionTester and
the removal of the printing debug file mechanism, earlier in this patch
sequence.

Should layout/tools/tests/regression_tests.* be removed too?
