Details

In https://phabricator.services.mozilla.com/D244929#8598670 :janv noted that under gtests xpc::IsInAutomation appears to return false. Especially since GTests are explicitly only for testing, it seems reasonable that we would return true in this case.

Interestingly https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1598804#c9 indicates that IsInAutomation did not return true for xpcshell tests until May 2023 when the pref was added to the xpcshell user.js file.
