Details

I have executed mach build and then changed a moz.build file. At this point I was somehow expected to know that I should rerun mach build before running mach test. A stale build caused my local tests to misbehave and I wasted a lot of time trying to troubleshoot.

mach test should detect a stale build and fail asking the user to run mach build.

If you need more details, please ask.
