STR:
- Log in to Firefox Accounts, and the use the FxA Test app and click 'Refresh Authentication UI'
- Enter the correct password.
- (Alternatively) enter the wrong password:

Expected:
- The dialog that shows the correct workflow should be displayed.

Actual:
- 'The user is already signed in' message shows.

I believe that we have no plans to exercise refreshAuthentication through the IAC API in the 2.0 timeframe. refreshAuth will be used by FMD and possible Marketplace via navigator.mozId, and will work* once bug 994934 lands (i.e. sometime today). Logout, which does use the IAC API, does not require forceAuth** (see bug 949100 ).

I therefore propose that we close this issue by removing the refreshAuthentication functionality from the TestFxA app. Jared and Jed?

* except that right now a failed challenge DOES log you out, which contradicts the user stories. I'll file a follow-up bug.

** forceAuth is just refreshAuth with a grace period of 0.

Sure, maybe we can file under 2.0 gaia nice-to-haves, since it's not hurting anything, and we haven't cleared the 2.0 blockers yet?

I followed Jared's suggestion re parent bug. I would still like to delete the code from (or at least hide the UI in) the Test FxA app, so that the latter is a faithful representation of what we are trying to do.

[Jed Parsons (use needinfo, please) [:jedp, :jparsons]]

That sounds good to me.  Remove the test and replace it with a comment pointing to the new bug?
