908019 - test_watchdog.js takes too long (top 8 duration)

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Core :: XPConnect, defect)

Description

[Mihnea Dobrescu-Balaur (:mihneadb)]

This test takes too long and it affects performance when running xpcshell tests in parallel. It should be made faster or split across multiple files.

You can see the duration data here[1]. It was collected on a linux x64 laptop.

Attachment: Split up watchdog tests to run in parallel. v1

This speeds up local xpcshell-test runs by ~6 seconds.

Annnnd, this is why try should throw an error when you pass it a test name it doesn't recognize.
