2026772 - Split preferences browser-chrome manifest into topic-based subfolders

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Firefox :: Settings UI, task)

Description

[Florian Quèze [:florian]]

The browser/components/preferences/tests/browser.toml manifest contains 189 tests in a single flat directory. This causes long runtimes on standalone jobs.

Split the tests into topic-based subfolders (similar to browser/base/content/test/), with a browser.toml manifest in each: aiFeatures, applications, credentials, downloads, etp, experimental_features, home, moreFromMozilla, networking, performance, permissions, privacy, search, security, sync, telemetry.

Tests that don't fit a clear category remain in the top-level browser.toml.

See bug 2025449 for the original alphabetical split attempt.
