821833 - Marionette timeout on switch_to_frame in gaia-ui-tests on desktop build

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Remote Protocol :: Marionette, defect)

Description

[Bob Silverberg [:bsilverberg]]

Running tests on the latest beta desktop build (Mac 64bit) all tests timeout on switch_to_frame at https://github.com/mozilla/gaia-ui-tests/blob/master/gaiatest/gaia_test.py#L78. I went back through the older builds and found that the last working one was from 2012-12-07-03-03-24-mozilla-beta.

Can you provide the link for the current build that you've downloaded?

Comment 2

[Bob Silverberg [:bsilverberg]]

Sorry, just seeing this now.

Latest is http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/b2g/nightly/latest-mozilla-beta/b2g-18.0.en-US.mac64.dmg

And last working version is http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/b2g/nightly/2012-12-07-03-03-24-mozilla-beta/b2g-18.0.en-US.mac64.dmg

Ah, that's the problem.  That build is old, from Dec 10, and contained known bug which is now fixed.  We aren't building against mozilla-beta any longer, but mozilla-b2g18.  Please try a build from:

http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/b2g/nightly/latest-mozilla-b2g18/

I just pulled down the build from latest-mozilla-b2g18 and tried it against a 'make profile' build in gaia, and I can't connect. I see:

in the logs, so marionette is initialized.

Possibly, this is more fallout from bug 800138.  :(  I'll try to take a look soon.

Comment 6

[Bob Silverberg [:bsilverberg]]

I had similar problems with the nightly build, and was directed to try the beta build to address them, which was how I came across this issue.

This is indeed due to bug 800138, the bug that keeps on giving!  It's dying here:

Attachment: Don't open extra socket when marionette.force-local is true,

This fixes the problem if you add user_pref(marionette.force-local, true); to prefs.js in Gaia's profile.

I am available to do some more testing on this, but I'm not sure which build I should be testing. Please let me know when there is a build available to be tested and I will try again.

I'm doing integration tests for the email app.

If I:

1. use last night's aurora build (http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/b2g/nightly/latest-mozilla-aurora/b2g-19.0a2.multi.linux-i686.tar.bz2),

2. and add this line to profile/user.js:

      user_pref("marionette.force-local", true);

then marionette correctly listens on port 2828 and I can run integration tests again.

This works for me now. Thank you!
