In bug 1402248 we tried to disable idle-daily during mochitest runs, by setting the pref to a recent time.

I've seen in a few test failures that idle-daily is still getting triggered and I've just been pointed to the run below, which indicates the same as well:

https://treeherder.mozilla.org/logviewer.html#?job_id=137833655&repo=try&lineNumber=3088

So, either the pref value is wrong, or it still didn't work for some reason...
I can reproduce the issue in comment 0 reliably with the patch from bug 1393800 and bug 1333126 applied on top of mozilla-central.

Testing this locally Gecko thinks roughly 22 years have elapsed since the last time we sent the idle-daily notification. I checked the values I get during startup here:

https://dxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/rev/20d57b9c4183973af4af5e078dff2aec0b74f928/widget/nsIdleService.cpp#179
So what's happening is that the we wait for the DAILY_SHORTENED_IDLE_SERVICE_SEC timeout (which is three minutes) and that happens smack in the middle of my tests.
We figured it - the pref is in seconds, not milliseconds (for some reason I'd assumed ms).

IIRC most of the prefs using timestamps use seconds, because of the integer limits, otherwise you should store strings.
