Attachment: Test Cases (using XHR)

After investigating I've concluded that the cause of this (supposed) failure is inside the CORS implementation. The same test case fails with XHR implementation.

I've read the CORS spec twice but I'm not sure if the test case is correct or not. In short, after the redirection (HTTP 302 code) the test case response doesn't provide the CORS response headers.

In the attachment I'm providing all possible test cases related to this bug and their results, too. I hope it can help the person who will take this bug.

Odin, sounds like there's a bug in your EventSource tests.

It's not clear to me if this is a Firefox bug or not. Can someone please confirm one way or another and update the status of this bug accordingly?
