828481 - Sending an enter key from Robocop/ pressing the Enter key on a hardware keyboard while in the web content results in the Tab Drawer being opened

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Firefox for Android Graveyard :: General, defect)

Description

[Adrian Tamas (:AdrianT)]

Attachment: Robocop test

Sending an Enter key while in the Web Content (Not in the Awesomescreen) opens the Tab Drawer. This does not impact users but affects Robocop tests. This issue is a regression and was not reproducible before the introduction of the new Tab Drawer UI with the submenu Tabs | Private | Synced. 

Steps:
1. Add the attached test to the Robocop build repository and remake robocop
2. Install the build and run the test on a device

Expected:
When the Enter is sent nothing happens

Actual:
When the Enter key is sent the Tab Drawer is opened

Unless someone already knows what the problem is, I'd like to try investigating.

Comment 2

[Adrian Tamas (:AdrianT)]

I was able to reproduce this with a hardware keyboard device so a user may run into this:
1) Load any website in the browser
2) Press the Enter key on a hardware keyboard

Result: The Tabs Drawer is opened

Tested on:
Nightly 21.0a1 2013-01-09
HTC Desire Z (Android 2.3.3)

This is no longer reproducible with the new UI with the steps in Comment 0 or Comment 2. Closing as WFM
