802453 - automation.py.in should set extensions.update.enabled to false

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Toolkit :: Add-ons Manager, defect)

Description

[Blair McBride [:Unfocused] (UNAVAILABLE)]

automation.py.in sets various prefs so we don't do unwanted stuff during test running, including setting dummy URLs for add-on updates. It should also just disable add-on updates too.

Should we also do this for reftests, Talos tests and jetpack tests?  I had to do them all when I disabled background updates in the test suites.

We already do for reftests, http://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/annotate/bd12f4180358/layout/tools/reftest/bootstrap.js#l27, since reftests lack automation.py's handy %(server)s to point at something local, so there they could go on long enough to leak them.

We better do this, I've already run out of room for test names in the summary of bug 802011.

Would be nice to know the root cause, but the wallpaper sure looks nice.
