Goals
- JavaScript-ability
- improved error reporting (more finegrained, helpful, etc.)
- be a stable test suite across upcoming refactorings (War On Sync)
- provide reliable perf measurements (track regressions, etc.)
Plan for Crossweave / TPS 2.0
- Rename to Test harness and Profiler for Sync (TPS)
- Python
- [DONE] refactor using Mozmill 2.0
- [DONE] remove support for the fx-sync repo and the the XPI version of sync
- [DONE] improve error handling for timeout conditions and python exceptions
- [DONE] connect to autolog
- [DONE] convert config and manifest file format to JSON
- remove result reporting to the MySQL db on brasstacks
- Harness
- [DONE] clone tps repo from crossweave repo
- refactor tests to JSON format
- support JavaScript tests
- refactor verify/verify-not/sync/... to be function calls
- make all test execution async
- move test files themselves to services/sync/tests/tps
Plan beyond TPS 2.0
- Run on all platforms
- Run against Fennec on mobile hardware (e.g. Tegra boards)
- Perf instrumentation
- event loop blocking (using
MOZ_INSTRUMENT_EVENT_LOOP
, see bug 606574; bug 631571 is the related bug for Talos) - memory usage (from
nsIMemoryReporterManager
) - GC operations (setting
javascript.options.mem.log
and grepping the error console for the corresponding log messages would already help; better even use build with--enable-gctimer
) - object allocations (no instrumentation yet?)
- event loop blocking (using
rnewman desires
- embed in JS tests? (embedded HTTP server?)
- support fuzz consistency tests
- more operations (restore from bookmarks to test wipe, for example)
