975284 - Add test for periodic data sync

Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(Firefox for Android Graveyard :: Data Providers, defect)

Description

[:Margaret Leibovic]

I installed my demo pocket panel on my regular Nightly build, but I never saw the data update on its own. We should make sure this periodic data sync actually works.

For now, or as a followup: We can make sure multiple syncs occur in testHomeProvider (currently [1]). :P

I've seen this working in the wild, so I'm re-purposing this bug to be about adding a testcase to testHomeProvider.
