694382 - multiple intermittent test failures in test-widget

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Add-on SDK Graveyard :: General, defect, P1)

Description

[Myk Melez [:myk] [@mykmelez]]

After I updated the revision of the SDK being tested on mozilla-aurora yesterday <https://tbpl.mozilla.org/?tree=Mozilla-Aurora&noignore=1&rev=7f5f7f9bc6e0>, the Windows debug build stopped failing due to a test run timeout!

That's super-exciting, because it means that the test output timeout I committed recently is doing its job of fixing the test run timeouts we were experiencing on debug machines!

Unfortunately, fixing that problem exposed another one: three intermittent test failures on those builds:

  test-widget.testConstructor: timed out
  test-widget.testPanelWidget1: failure
  test-widget.testWidgetMove: exception

Sadly, it looks intermittent, as the next test run came up roses:

https://tbpl.mozilla.org/?tree=Mozilla-Aurora&noignore=1&rev=fafffd7c801e

The one after that is still in process, no results yet:

That one came up roses, too, but others have failed since then:

So this is indeed an intermittent problem.

Wes: It looks like we are not facing this intermittent failure anymore ?

Yeah. We still have intermittent timeouts, but I don't think it's breaking widget tests.
