937081 - Try using action chain to tap on Play button in test_music.py

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Firefox OS Graveyard :: Gaia::UI Tests, defect, P4)

Description

[Zac C (:zac)]

In running this test we are blocked by bug #862156; we cannot tap on the play button because Marionette thinks it is invisible.

David Burns has suggested we experiment with using an Action chain - eg press().release().perform() - to see if the play works.

Please experiment and see if we can get the test to go a bit further.

I'll try to see if it works using Action chain

I modified the test by using Action chain and it fails, because the play button still not visible. This is the error I got:
