It's not necessary as the added flexibility of it being dynamic doesn't positively compensate for the degradation of the user performance. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open QAC 2. Go to the Litmus Tab and Click on the Select/Change Tests button 3. Click on various test groups/subgroups within a test run. Actual Results: The lists take forever to update as the main window is updated at the same time. Expected Results: To increase performance and usability, the main window should not be updated until the user has selected a subgroup and pressed "OK".
Before we take this, I want to be sure it's on the QAC side, and not on the Litmus side. We need to comment out a the code that updates the backround window and run a test to see if the application still feels slow as Aakash describes. Any volunteers?
Litmus has been replaced by MozTrap. If we want an extension to integrate with MozTrap, it would be better to start from scratch with a new extension rather than trying to shoehorn that functionality into the >5 year old QAC.
