Details

Some tests (in particular gtest and xpcshell) don't really handle child processes, though they are probably there.
It would be good to clarify what present tests do, and what they actually verify (probably whatever is in the captured profile, which may include sub-profiles from child processes), and possibly tweak them to explicitly test with and/or without child process data.

See also bug 1749687, where gtest were found to unexpectedly start/stop child profilers.
