556730 - reftest should provide its own browser.chromeURL

Status: REOPENED

(Testing :: Reftest, defect)

Description

[Mike Hommey [:glandium]]

As I'm running reftests on xulrunner, I'm actually not running them in firefox, but in a sample application. I haven't taken a deep look at what really happens and why, but would appreciate any help as to what to look at specifically. Anyways, the sample application I use to run the reftests has no specific chrome, and only a few preferences. Everything else is provided by XRE.

This is the error I get:
REFTEST TEST-UNEXPECTED-FAIL | file:///tmp/buildd/xulrunner-1.9.2.2/js/src/tests/jsreftest.html?test=js1_5/Regress/regress-351116.js | Unknown :0: uncaught exception: [Exception...

I found what is missing: a browser.chromeURL setting and corresponding chrome ; even a simple chrome.

Or maybe this bug should be kept to have reftest have its own browser.chromeURL ?
