It would be really nice if somehow we could build Fenix in a try job or for every autoland commit.

Few benefits from this:

  • Gecko engineers could easily test builds from try directly in Fenix
  • mozregression could bisect Fenix down to the single Gecko commit

It's very unclear how it would work since Fenix is not in mozilla-central and its development is not in sync with Gecko and GeckoView.

We meet a regression only reproducible with specific IME on Android (bug 1764238). If it'd be easier to handle the bug if this bug had already been fixed. I really hope that this has higher priority than P5. Could be blocking bug 1556042?

I've started implementing a way for mobile engineers to run performance tests on try using custom APKs. We'll be doing this by committing/uploading an APK locally, and simply installing that APK instead of the usual one. I thought I'd mention that since this could be an easy way to integrate in other tests as well.
