Hi all,
I have been spending some time reworking (removing) the sticky element disabler (aka Scroller) in the ATH. (https://github.com/jenkinsci/acceptance-test-harness/pull/2713)
The main benifit is that we do not need to run _javascript_ at the start of each page load, which needed to happen not just on page load, but on a dialog load now in various places.
This JS running hid various timing issues where PageObjects/test etc blindly assumed that a webelement was on screen and visible.
removing this artificial slow down has revealed several timing issues that I have fixed in various places in the ATH.
So this is all golden, however the new way relies on WebDriver Bi-Directoional support from the browser, and Safari has no usable implementation of this.
I don't think anyone uses Safari to driver the ATH, and for those that do I would suggest quickly switching to firefox which is (currently) the only browser we run the ATH on for its own tests.
Does anyone have any objections to dropping Safari support here?
