Integrate friendly tips from Tor colleagues to make (or not) 4.5 alpha 3;
This includes removal of overloaded (but unused) methods, and addition of
a overlooked call to DataStruct::SetData(nsISupports, uint32_t, bool.)

     1 Robocop Mochitest

     2 =================

     4 *Robocop Mochitest* tests run on Native Android builds marked with an

     5 'rc' in TBPL.  These are Java based tests which run from the mochitest

     6 harness and generate similar log files.  These are designed for

     7 testing the native UI of Android devices by sending events to the

     8 front end.

    10 See the documentation at

    11 https://wiki.mozilla.org/Auto-tools/Projects/Robocop/WritingTests for

    12 details.

    14 Development cycle

    15 -----------------

    17 To deploy the robocop APK to your device and start the robocop test

    18 suite, use::

    20     make -C $OBJDIR mochitest-robocop

    22 To run a specific test case, such as ``testLoad``::

    24     make -C $OBJDIR mochitest-robocop TEST_PATH=testLoad

    26 The Java files in ``mobile/android/base/tests`` are dependencies of the

    27 robocop APK built by ``build/mobile/robocop``.  If you modify Java files

    28 in ``mobile/android/base/tests``, you need to rebuild the robocop APK

    29 with::

    31     mach build build/mobile/robocop

    33 Changes to ``.html``, ``.css``, ``.sjs``, and ``.js`` files in

    34 ``mobile/android/base/tests`` do not require rebuilding the robocop

    35 APK -- these changes are always 'live', since they are served by the

    36 mochitest HTTP server and downloaded each test run by your device.

    38 ``mach package`` does build and sign a robocop APK, but ``make

    39 mochitest-robocop`` does not use it.  (This signed APK is used to test

    40 signed releases on the buildbots).

    42 As always, changes to ``mobile/android/base``, ``mobile/android/chrome``,

    43 ``mobile/android/modules``, etc., require::

    45     mach build mobile/android/base && mach package && mach install

    47 as usual.
