811453 - mozharness unittest issues on windows 8

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Release Engineering :: General, defect, P3)

We're looking into commenting out virtualenv_path or modifying the path from C:\slave to C:\talos-slave.
I was hoping not to have that hardcoded when I started working on the testes on IX.

I'd like to confirm that this fixes win8 and doesn't break the current windows tests.

[needs testing] fix win 8 ?

Armen verified this got past the win8 mozinstall issues plus the changed buildslave dir, which probably means it'll work on other flavors of windows.

We still have to resolve the py25 dependency for mouse_and_screen_resolution.py.

Not blocking rollout; needs a mouse_and_screen_resolution.py solution.  Fixing dependencies.

Comment 5

If we add pywin32 to the windows virtualenv modules, we can stop depending on py25.

Comment 6

[Armen [:armenzg]]

I can work on this if you don't mind.

Comment 7

Whether "this" refers to comment 5 or comment 5 + comment 2, either way, I don't mind and would appreciate it :)

We can reopen once we are closer to have a Win8 test infra which is not anytime soon.
