Details

Steps to reproduce: 1. Have a test with the following code: ```js const s = Symbol(); is(s, s); ``` Expected results: The assertion is correct, so my test should pass Actual results: I get an error when running the test (error from a test I was working on): TEST-UNEXPECTED-FAIL | devtools/client/webconsole/new-console-output/test/mochitest/browser_webconsole_eval_in_debugger_stackframe2.js | Uncaught exception - at chrome://mochikit/content/browser-test.js:1269 - TypeError: can't convert symbol to string Stack trace: test_is@chrome://mochikit/content/browser-test.js:1269:5 @chrome://mochitests/content/browser/devtools/client/webconsole/new-console-output/test/mochitest/browser_webconsole_eval_in_debugger_stackframe2.js:57:3 Async*Tester_execTest/<@chrome://mochikit/content/browser-test.js:1065:21 Tester_execTest@chrome://mochikit/content/browser-test.js:1056:9 Tester.prototype.nextTest</<@chrome://mochikit/content/browser-test.js:956:9 SimpleTest.waitForFocus/waitForFocusInner/focusedOrLoaded/<@chrome://mochikit/content/tests/SimpleTest/SimpleTest.js:795:59 Doing ```js const s = Symbol(); ok(s === s); ``` do not throw and is a workaround, but it would be nice if `is` could work here.
