977604 - Create metro tests for keyboard shortcuts

Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(Mozilla QA Graveyard :: Mozmill Tests, defect, P2)

Description

[Cosmin Malutan, [:cosmin-malutan]]

We would need metro tests for keyboard shortcuts as we would want to test different localized builds.

I would suggest to test all the keys from dtd file, and maybe group them:
http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/browser/metro/locales/en-US/chrome/browser.dtd#96
As an example I was thinking to:
https://hg.mozilla.org/qa/mozmill-tests/file/default/firefox/tests/functional/testSearch/testSearchViaShortcut.js

I propose we add "testSearchViaShortcut.js", tab-browsing is covered by Daniel in bug 924077, and I will have to investigate if we have access "Flyout Panel", which looks like it's being rendered by OS.

I checked the Flyout-Panel, and we have to get the elements by id:
>  AboutFlyoutPanel => 'about-flyoutpanel'
>  PrefsFlyoutPanel => 'prefs-flyoutpanel'
So we can test the opening and closing of flyout panel by access key.

As filed this should become a meta bug which we can use to collect ideas for possible shortcut tests. Individual implementations should happen on their own bugs and marked as dependent here.

This is no longer valid.
We have 1 landed test, so I'll mark it as INCOMPLETE.
