1643395 - Add test capability for FOG to direct pings to local servers

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Toolkit :: Telemetry, task, P1)

Description

[Chris H-C :chutten]

Integration tests of FOG-having Firefox Desktop instances will require some way to change the server that pings are uploaded to from incoming.telemetry.mozilla.org to one hosted on a port on the local machine.

I think we should be able to do this by:

• Making a pref (marionette can set prefs) for what port we should use
• Reading that pref on every upload
  • If that pref is absent or 0, use https://incoming.telemetry.mozilla.org
  • If that pref is present and non-0, send to http://localhost:prefport (note the protocol)

Test procedure for this patch was to add the patch to t/c/g/src/lib.rs from https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1623304#c10, build FIrefox, and run it with RUST_LOG="fog,glean" ./mach run. The log should print out the url it tried to post the ping to which, if the pref is set to a value greater than 0, is localhost.
