896811 - Test output looks very strange, and is useless for failing tests

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

Description

[Erik Vold [:erikvold] (please needinfo? me)]

I'm getting stuff like this:

`console.info: pathfinder: pass:, css is unregistered.`

The `console.info:` stuff is not useful.

The `pass:,` is just strange..  why is there a `,` char?

Comment 1

[Dave Townsend [:mossop] (he/him)]

I've been seeing odd tracebacks too. Is this related to switching away from using a file for output Irakli?

Comment 2

[Irakli Gozalishvili [:irakli] [:gozala] [@gozala]]

No it's related to switching to devtools console I believe, probably because they print stack traces differently then we did.

Do you want to look into what is causing it then?

Comment 5

[Erik Vold [:erikvold] (please needinfo? me)]

How did this get assigned to me?  I'm busy enough, let's just revert the commit Irakli is referring to, I don't know who landed it or where.

Irakli do you know?

Comment 6

[Dave Townsend [:mossop] (he/him)]

He's talking about bug 850296 I think and while we could back that out for a time we still need someone to figure out what the problem is and how to fix it. I assigned it to you because you were the one complaining about it. Everyone is busy.

Comment 7

[Dave Townsend [:mossop] (he/him)]

I'm not actually seeing this problem anyway, are you testing on a recent Nightly of Firefox?

Proving that positional optional arguments are sad, max length comes before min length for this particular call.

It was Jordan, but looks like Dave is on it, so I'm not sure it's worth reverting it now.

The comma should be fixed per bug 880752 (which I just relanded, including some modifications in the expectations of jetpack tests).
