Overview
As an essential part of Boot2Gecko (Mozilla Firefox OS), the WebAPIs provide access to the device OS, thus allowing html applications to use mobile phone features. For example, a B2G html application can send SMS messages via javascript using the WebSMS WebAPI.
In order to ensure the functionality of the WebAPIs, an extensive WebAPI test suite must be developed. Both the Mochitest and Marionette automation frameworks will be used in the development and execution of the WebAPI tests, which ultimately will be executed on the B2G device emulator on a per-check-in basis.
