778010 - mochitest dom/imptests/editing/selecttest/test_addRange.html disabled on android

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(Testing :: Mochitest, defect)

Description

[Geoff Brown [:gbrown]]

In bug 775227, mochitest dom/imptests/editing/selecttest/test_addRange.html has been disabled on android (in android.json) on suspicion of causing out of memory errors on the Tegras. Additional investigation is required to verify this test's memory use and determine if it can be re-enabled on Android.

Sounds very plausible that it would cause OOM.

Attachment: logcat showing test_addRange causing low memory

This logcat taken from a run of M3 with test_addRange enabled.

Note the ActivityManager messages about "Process died" and "Low Memory".

Comment 3

[Geoff Brown [:gbrown]]

Curiously, I cannot reproduce the low memory warnings if I run only TEST_PATH=dom/imptests/editing/selecttest (but the low memory warnings and process kills occur consistently if I run the whole 3rd-chunk-of-8 mochitest run).

Mass closing mochitest bugs that haven't had activity in the past 5 years. Please re-open or file a new bug with modern context if this is still relevant.
