892521 - [User Story] Email Notifications - Email App Foreground

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Firefox OS Graveyard :: Gaia::E-Mail, defect)

Description

[Peter Dolanjski [:pdol]]

User Story:

As a user, I want to be notified when a new email arrives in my inbox when the email application is currently in the foreground so that I can be made aware that a new email has arrived. 


Acceptance Criteria:

1. If I am currently viewing a particular mailbox within the Email app and a new email is detected to have arrived for that mailbox, the user interface is updated to reflect the new email arrival
2. If I am currently viewing a particular mailbox within the Email app and a new email is detected to have arrived for a different mailbox, I am made aware that I have received an email
3. If I am currently viewing a partiular email body within the Email app and a new email is detected to have arrived for one of my mailboxes, I am made aware that I have received an email

Comment 3

[Peter Bylenga [:PBylenga]]

Scenarios 2 and 3 of Comment 1 fail for me. Implementation does not appear to have landed correctly.

Scenario 2:
When user is in another folder (Starred & Local Drafts tested) no banner is visible during periodic sync.  Switching to Inbox folder after sync has been performed does NOT show the blue "new email" banner.  Could be timed out and retracted during transition.

Scenario 3:
When user is in the body of an email and returns after a periodical sync period has been performed user can observe the "new email" banner that drops below header, this isn't visible while viewing the body of an email.
