We want to display an accessible object's name and role information in the info-bar when highlighted. This will serve as a starting point for what sorts of information can be shown as part the accessible highlighter. 

See attached screenshot for an example.

Bug 1473030 - Show accessible object's name and role information with the info-bar highlighter.

https://reviewboard.mozilla.org/r/256082/#review263402

Good work! See comments, mostly small improvements.

One issue I found: when using Browser Toolbox and hovering over accessible objects in the tree that do not have valid bounds the infobar still shows in the top left corner of the window.

OK, I think walker managing highlighter is the way to go since we are emitting events on an actor that is not transferred over the wire to the client.

after highlighter is initalized, you should call
```
this.manage(this.highlighter); 
```
which adds the highglihger actor to its pool of actors and assigns the actorID

removeEventListener -> off

Since we now manage the highlighter (it's in walker's pool of actors), it will be destroyed when walker actor is destroyed. We do not need to call this.highlighter.destroy() any more here.

Also, double check if we successfully remove the event listener even after the the highligher's destroy method was called.

It makes sense for now to stick aria-hidden on the top level highlighter-container and remove role presentation, and aria-hidden from anywhere else

In the function doc, the parent of the infobar container is root, instead of highlighter-container.

Wouldn't we want to first update the inforbar and then show it?

Not entirely sure why this is necessary. I'd expect we can get away with just having _hideAccessibleContent and _showAccessibleInfobar

If update happens before show, this might not be necessary?

I would rename these two methods to update... instead of show

I would move everything from this line to the end into a separate function (similar to box model). Also see box model how infobar is moved when scroll position changes. I think this is relevant in our case here too.

Is there a reason to reassign message to nameMessage?
Also, as far as I can see, warning is actually named hasWarning in the checker.

I think it will be safer to not include the checker in this patch. Lets wait until we have something we actually implement in it.

This should be in a class instead of a style attribute.

Hopefully this will not be necessary with suggestions about the order of update/visibility above.

I don't believe we can have an accesible with no role. So
```
this.getElement("infobar-role").setTextContent(`${this.options.role}`);
```
should suffice

We should probably keep the order of args as consistent with the moveInfobar in markup as possible.

This would be more consistent if we took that out as a CSS variable similar to --highlighter-bubble-arrow-size. 8px is referenced in many places so reusing that value would be very helpful. (I think it's possible to do arithmetic with the value of "8px" if you use calc())

Lets use truncateString from devtools/client/inspector/markup/utils.js which means you need to move this utility into shared folder and put it somewhere meaningful

8px seems to be a special number everywhere, lets take it out as a variable, (also seen in moveInforbar)

Same here, lets put aria-hidden true on container, this way we wont need any presentation or aria-hidden attributes anywhere.

To test truncation you can just import utils, I believe.

Bug 1473030 - Show accessible object's name and role information with the info-bar highlighter.

https://reviewboard.mozilla.org/r/256082/#review263402

Thanks for the review!

I think we discussed some of these accessible objects probably not having a "aria-hidden: true" attribute on them and only the "hidden" property, which can be an accessibility concern depending on the role of the object. If this is the case, should we flag this with the info-bar? Or just hide the info-bar for now until we address it in another patch?

Sounds good, I will make sure to mention this in Bug 1474391 - Accessible highlighter does not emit "highlighter-event".

> Wouldn't we want to first update the inforbar and then show it?

`this._showAccessibleInfobar` removes the "hidden" attribute to the info-bar node, which makes its computed style properties available as a result. When `this._updateAccessibleInfobar` is called the `moveInfobar` needs these computed style properties to properly position the info-bar.  Trying to update first causes the container to be positioned incorrectly

> Not entirely sure why this is necessary. I'd expect we can get away with just having _hideAccessibleContent and _showAccessibleInfobar

We would need `_hideAccessibleInfobar` since it hides the infobar container when the accessible is unhighlighted. 

I think for now we can remove `_hideAccessibleContent` since the infobar name would be already hidden by `_hideAccessibleInfobar`

Mostly complete, some nits below. I did find another issue were (in browser toolbox) if you highlight something valid and then after highlight a no-bounds accessible (via a11y tree) the infobar will still show up, but with data related to the last valid accessible.

nit: if you see the actual implementation, infobar container is appended to highligher container, instead of root. So either change the comment or the implementation to be consistent.

Since infobar is the same for both highlighters, lets make an infobar component (in utils) that will be responsible for rendering itself in the markup, and would contain, update methods that are infobar specific (e.g. for role and name), maybe even move.

"var(--highlighter-bubble-arrow-size)" is used in plenty of places to declare it as a variable.

Bug 1473030 - Show accessible object's name and role information with the info-bar highlighter.

Looks good, I think we can simplify the API between the highlighter object and an infobar. I'll add comments here instead of inline so they are all in one place:

* Nit: lets just name it Inforbar and the other one XULWindowInfobar.
* From what I can tell a common api between the two infobars and the two highlighters are the following methods of the inforbar: buildMarkup, show, hide, update (move should really be done in update).
* To be consistent lets:
  * Create infobar component at the same time we create highlighter.
  * Destroy(set to null) the infobar component when we destroy highlighter.
  * Only pass the things we need to the infobar in its constructor (root can just be passed to buildMarkup method, win and bounds can be passed to move). I think infobar doesn't really need neither highlighter nor root in the contstructor. buildMarkup method can recieve both root and createNode method which highlighter passes to it and is a wrapper around the original createNode that already sets the prefix, and has the window.
  * I don't think you need setContentOn (it doesn't seem to change when you override it in xul infobar either). You can just do it all in updateName and updateRole directly
  * XUL does not need to keep track of any of the infobar elements.
  * _updateAccessibleInfobar methods are not needed. You can just call infobar.update in their place.
  * _updateAccessibleInfobar should move as show into infobar component
  * _hideAccessibleInfobar should move as hide into infobar component.

I think that's mostly it.

move color:hsl(210, 30%, 85%) into a variable in the beginning of the file (along with other ones) since this value is used in more places than just our inforbar.

This is a good "integration" test. That we get things as expected on walker event. Now that we have a component on its own (infobar) we should also add a test suite for it as well (sorry to pile more work on :) ).

Bug 1473030 - Show accessible object's name and role information with the info-bar highlighter.

Sorry haven't gotten to the tests just yet, but the rest is reviewed. Final polish and final re-review and I think we'd be good to go.

was thinking about this a little more, do you mind removing this method after all. Lets use createNode (from markup) instead to be consistent with attributes, prefixes, etc.

This @param is no longer there.

To be able to have a more elegant getElement, lets have these property names match the ids of the created nodes like this:

this.infobar = ...
this["infobar-text"] = ...
this["infobar-role"] = ...

This can be simplified, see comment below and build markup:

in regular infobar (e.g. here) this method can just look like:
```
getElement(id) {
  return this.highlighter.getElement(id);
}
```
XULWindowInfobar should override it like this:
```
getElement(id) {
  return this[id];
}
```

wherever you use getElement you will just call this.getElement({some-id}) where some-id is the element id without the prefix. This should work because you can put created nodes directly into infobar (in buildMarkup) like this, for example, this["infobar-text"] = createNode(...)

So as mentioned above, getElement will be called (here and everywhere else with the string id):

this.getElement("infobar-container")

Bug 1473030 - Show accessible object's name and role information with the info-bar highlighter.

https://reviewboard.mozilla.org/r/256082/#review266236

I think the markup tests can be removed/folded into show. We don't really test much by checking markup structure. We should really just have tests for visibibility (default, after show, after hide) and text contnet of role and name. Also I would test show/hide when sequence after options and bounds are updated and we re-rednder infobar correctly.

These are probably overkill (I don't think we test anything relevant when we check markup structure.) Lets drop there and just have ones that check correct textContent for name and role.

It's probably only worth checking that before show we are hidden and after show we are visible. And i think it's done in show test file already.

I don't think you need to spawn a new tab here. You can just run the tests in the current tab.

require seems to be used in head.js without being imported, are you sure it needs to be explicitely imported?

The bits of code from here until the end of initial buildMarkup are similar enough in all 3 tests that they should belong to a separate function e.g. setupAccessibleInfobar that should be in head.js

Maybe it can take bounds and options as arugments?

I think you need to do the have tests with regular Infobar, since we override a bunch of methods. I think it should be possible to parametrize these based on the Infobar passed.

make sure you call highlighter.hide() after you're done with checkInforbar.

same here, you need to hide before the next show.

We don't need to since `_hideAccessibleBounds` hides the entire markup container for the highlighter.

As discussed, we don't need to check for invalid bounds, since show() will never be called if bounds are invalid.

I would move these constants into their own individual lines to make it easier to read. This would make more sense when you are initializing simple values like {}, but otherwise, this wouldn't be easy to read.

Bug 1473030 - Show accessible object's name and role information with the info-bar highlighter.

https://reviewboard.mozilla.org/r/256082/#review268902

> We should also destroy the highlighter.

We don't need to destroy since the highlighter actor is added to the walker actor's pool of actors, so when the walker is destroyed the highlighter will be too.

> We also have a moveInfobar in https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/source/devtools/server/actors/highlighters/utils/markup.js#586. I was wondering if we have considered using that or improving it.

There is no guarantee bounds will be the same between XUL and the regular highlighter, as well as the moveInfobar from markup.js expecting special properties that are only present on anonymous content, which is why we are unable to use the existing one.

Add a period at the end.

Couldn't we avoid doing this by specifying prefix: this.prefix.

Ex:
    createNode(this.win, {
      nodeType: "span",
      parent: areaTextbox,
      attributes: {
        "class": "area-infobar-dimensions",
        "id": "area-infobar-dimensions"
      },
      prefix: this.ID_CLASS_PREFIX
    });

Since we already fetching the elements using the getElement method, I don't think we should set the node into the class' this prototype.

This is related to all the this["infobar-X"].

We should clear 

this.infobar = null;

We can actually remove "Returns" since the @return should write like a sentence.

Also, I think you meant Element here.

@return {Element} the element with the specified ID.

Can remove "Returns"

just a single space after @return

Basically the { should line up.

Move "} = getViewportDimensions(this.win);" to the next line.

We need to remove this reference to the node in a destroy(). Otherwise, I would do this.getElement("arrow") everywhere.

Add a new line after this.

Let's reorder these to be

this.accessibleInfobar.destroy();

this.accessibleInfobar = null;
this.win = null;

That way we have a clear section to destroy and remove things and then the end is just to clean up references by setting them to null.

I like to move helper functions to unit tests to the bottom of the file so that we can read the test tasks up first.

This is the unit test description so it should be moved to the top of the file so that it is the first thing people will read when they are looking to see what this unit test is doing.

Move it under "use strict";:

"use strict";

// Test the accessible highlighter's infobar content.

Add a new line between the test comment and add_task

I think we can move these helper functions outside this giant ContentTask.spawn

I think this whole function can be simplified to be 

infobar.getElement("infobar-container").getAttribute("hidden")

We can simplify this:

function checkInfobar(infobar, { shouldBeHidden, role, name }) {

We store the node into the class since the highlighter's getElement method only works for anonymous content markup, so we are doing this primarily for the XUL infobar markup. 

However, I changed it so we use getElementById for the XULWindowInfobar's getElement override .

> I think we can move these helper functions outside this giant ContentTask.spawn

Since the tests run on a separate content process for this browser tab, they won't be able to access functions defined outside of it.
