1753059 - Chromium hangs trying to run WPT (Ubuntu Chromium Snap)

Status: NEW

(Testing :: web-platform-tests, defect)

Description

[Matthew Gaudet (he/him) [:mgaudet]]

I found that using mach wpt --headless --product chrome --binary /usr/bin/chromium-browser was smart enough to download chrome driver for the chromium snap, but hung trying to run.

Then I installed the actually Chrome .deb downloaded from Google's chrome page; subsequently ./mach wpt --headless --product chrome was sufficient and run properly.

It seems like either Chromium should work, or there should be an error early indicating only real-Chrome works.

(Note: the above run used /snap/bin/chromium, just because I wanted to see if it had a different result. It didn't)

There's some upstream work happening in https://github.com/web-platform-tests/wpt/pull/32485 which might help with this case.
