1836673 - Document AppTestDelegate and AppUiTestDelegate

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(WebExtensions :: General, task, P2)

Description

[Rob Wu [:robwu]]

AppUiTestDelegate and AppTestDelegate were introduced in bug 1681360, and a non-functional Thunderbird version was added in bug 1691866.

This file is part of the AppTestDelegate API to enable us to test (extension) code across different app builds (desktop and Android mobile), despite the different underlying implementations of e.g. the "tabs" concept.

Documentation on it is non-existent, which makes it difficult to maintain.

In bug 1830814, AppUiTestDelegate.jsm is being renamed to AppUiTestDelegate.sys.mjs. To make it easier for Thunderbird to offer a correct implementation, I'm going to add documentation that explains how the files fit together. And also, the existence of this documentation should make it easier for engineers to write plain mochitests that are shared between mobile and desktop.
