Details

As part of the 35.0.0 release (migration to pure webextension), some tests only passed when the Screenshots addon was explicitly disabled as part of test setup.

Ideally, we should be testing the browser as shipped in tests like the browser chrome tests. This bug captures work to get the in-tree tests working with Screenshots enabled.

Chris had pointed out: "browser-screenshots test runs on macOS (and Linux, Win7, and Win10) on autoland, but doesn't run on macOS on mozilla-central. I suspect the reason is that mochitest.yml doesn't know that macOS opt tests have WebRender ("qr") enabled. mochitest.yml[1] is
trying to run the test on "macosx1014-64-shippable/opt" (no "qr") on mozilla-central, but macOS opt tests on mozilla-central are called
"macosx1014-64-shippable-qr/opt"."
