1626873 - xpcshell-test globals could be loaded from the testing/xpcshell/head.js file

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Developer Infrastructure :: Lint and Formatting, task, P2)

Description

[Mark Banner (:standard8)]

We should investigate getting tools/lint/eslint/eslint-plugin-mozilla/lib/configs/xpcshell-test.js to load its globals directly from testing/xpcshell/head.js.

We probably set it up in the early days when we didn't have the capability to load the globals from a file, but we should be able to do this now.

We should be able to do it because the browser-window environment is formed the same way.

I'm also wondering if we shouldn't just create an xpcshell environment and then have that turned on for xpcshell-tests and turn the browser environment off - I'm not sure if that will give us slightly better global definition for tests. It would be worth investigating.
