571379 - [mozmill] No search suggestions shown for testSearchSuggestions.js

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(Mozilla QA Graveyard :: Mozmill Tests, defect)

Description

[Henrik Skupin [:whimboo][⌚️UTC+1]]

When you run the Mozmill test which checks the results of the search suggestions for different search engines you will not get any search suggestions displayed. 

http://hg.mozilla.org/qa/mozmill-tests/file/default/firefox/testSearch/testSearchSelection.js

This test always fails and is even reproducible manually:

1. Open Firefox or a new window
2. Focus the search bar by pressing Ctrl/Cmd+K
3. Enter "Moz" quickly or simply "M"

After those steps no search suggestions are displayed. Manually you will have to hit backspace and enter the search term again.

My testing showed that this happens across all platforms and all versions of Firefox.

Gavin, is it something which could be easily fixed? We will have Mozmill tests on buildbot soon, so it would be important.

This test fails on latest 1.9.1 and passes on latest trunk and 1.9.2

ERROR:mozmill:Test Failure: {u'exception': {u'message': u"timeout exceeded for waitForEval('subject.popup.state == 'open'')"

I can take a look at it

Failing due to a problem with Shiretoko unable to set focus on the primary testing window during a testrun. As a result the popup-autocomplete is unable to draw in the background, thus failing the test. I suspect this test will pass once that issue is addressed.

Mass move of Mozmill Test related project bugs to newly created components. You can filter out those emails by using "Mozmill-Tests-to-MozillaQA" as criteria.
