915575 - For gaia endurance test cases: Should keep the data and saved in the file system

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 915572

(Remote Protocol :: Marionette, defect)

Description

[Malini Das [:mdas] - Away, not checking bugmail]

This is needed by the Taipei team running MTBF endurance tests.

To be specific, Bruce, does this mean to keep all the data we wipe during the setUp/cleanUp phase in gaia-ui-test (https://github.com/mozilla/gaia-ui-tests/blob/master/gaiatest/gaia_test.py#L425 and https://github.com/mozilla/gaia-ui-tests/blob/master/gaiatest/gaia_test.py#L452)? From what I can see here, we remove contact information, media files, indexedDB files, /data/b2g/mozilla (profile information).

Is this a duplicate of bug 915572 where we'll be leaving the data between tests, or do you want to clear the data from the target but have it backed up somewhere?

Hi David,

I believe we should leave the data between tests and not to clean up the data as to simulate the real user's usage. 

Thanks.

Okay, that sounds like a duplicate of bug 915572 then, which proposes to add a --no-cleanup argument to avoid any cleanup between tests.
