598338 - Mozmill Update tests broken due to relocation of update dialog

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Mozilla QA Graveyard :: Mozmill Tests, defect)

Description

[Henrik Skupin [:whimboo][⌚️UTC+2]]

Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.6; rv:2.0b7pre) Gecko/20100921 Firefox/4.0b7pre

With the fixes on bug 306018 and bug 585475 we cannot open the update dialog anymore with Mozmill. Therefore we have to update the SoftwareUpdateAPI:

IF version >= 4.0b7
  IF mac
    Open via "Minefield | Check for Updates..."
  ELSE
    Open via about dialog
ELSE
  Open via "Help | Check for Updates..."

Given that path we will still be able to run update tests for older alpha and beta releases of Firefox 4.0. The old code can be dropped once we have Firefox 4.0 released.

To be able to have update tests working with nightly builds we will have to check for 4.0b7pre instead of 4.0b7.

Attachment: Patch v1 (default)

Tested on all platforms with nightly builds for partial and fallback updates. Also tested older release builds to make sure the version condition works as expected.
