Separate bug for the intermittent failures in web-platform-tests, so classification and intermittent view doesn't collide with our implementation process on bug 1543337.

This seems to come from the CallbackHandler class:

https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/rev/f91bd38732d4a330eba4e780812274b98eb81274/testing/web-platform/tests/tools/wptrunner/wptrunner/executors/base.py#586

So tests might call into here with those actions. I wonder if we should skip those until we really support the touch action primitive?

Comment 2

[David Burns :automatedtester]

Those tests should have expectation data showing them as failing until we fix this. We should not skip them

[Henrik Skupin [:whimboo][⌚️UTC+1]]

(In reply to David Burns :automatedtester from comment #2)

Those tests should have expectation data showing them as failing until we fix this. We should not skip them

The problem is that it is only a warning and pretty much fills the failure pane on Treeherder without failing the tests. So marking as skipped or expected fail won't work in both cases.

Comment 8

[David Burns :automatedtester]

Maja, Is this on your list of bugs you are looking for disabling? If not could you disable it, I am already doing the marionette changes for this

Comment 9

[Maja Frydrychowicz :impossibus (was :maja_zf) (needinfo me)]

This doesn't actually cause jobs to be orange so I don't think it's a good idea to disable just for warning logs, especially given that we already have accurate expectation metadata. If I'm missing something, let me know.

Comment 10

[Henrik Skupin [:whimboo][⌚️UTC+1]]

Now that the intermittent-failure keyword has been removed, we shouldn't get new classifications anymore. Maybe that helps for the time being.

Comment 19

[Maja Frydrychowicz :impossibus (was :maja_zf) (needinfo me)]

Attachment: Bug 1562167 - Avoid log-parser highlight for marionette pointerType error

If we only log the error without raising, hundreds of tests would report
a timeout in Mozilla's CI.

The Treeherder log highlighting excludes strings that include "TEST-INFO ".

Comment 20

[BugBot [:suhaib / :marco/ :calixte]]

The leave-open keyword is there and there is no activity for 6 months.
:maja_zf, maybe it's time to close this bug?

Comment 21

[Maja Frydrychowicz :impossibus (was :maja_zf) (needinfo me)]

The attached patch fixes the problem, but extensive metadata and test changes need to be added. I'm keeping the leave-open and hopefully I can revive that patch soon.

Great. So lets also mark it as fixed given that we know the bug.
