492421 - Enable a11y tests for Mac on SeaMonkey trunk

Status: NEW

(SeaMonkey :: Release Engineering, enhancement)

Description

[Serge Gautherie (:sgautherie)]

Enable a11y on mozilla-central MacOSX test build, when we eventually have one.

We'll need (at least) something like

[Robert Kaiser]

This is a minor detail in the config for which we already have everything we need in the new buildbot config except for an actually mozilla-central-based "branch" which isn't really possible with buildbotcustom-based classes yet.

Bug 539335 fixed the related mozconfig filed :-)
But we don't have a tinderbox for this yet :-(

Comment 3

[Robert Kaiser]

The mozconfigs should have been fixed a long time for turning on a11y on Mac when a box is there, actually.

This just depends on bug 504344 (turning on all tests on trunk), which depends on bug 526208 (getting the machines to support that).

Bug 539355 !

Yep.

[Serge Gautherie (:sgautherie)]

SeaMonkey 2.1 (like Firefox 3.6+) has --enable-accessibility in 'unittest' mozconfig only, but not in 'debug' mozconfig.

Could you try enabling it, to check what the result is?

Firefox trunk runs Mac a11y on optimized builds but not on debug ones.

SeaMonkey trunk runs tests on debug only (ftb).
KaiRo prefers not to try debug Mac a11y for now.

Actually, trunk Firefox doesn't (currently) run MacOSX a11y on neither Opt nor Debug buids :-|
