Pointer lock is tricky to automate tests for. Consider some examples:
- Upon lock, no pointer should be visible.
- A user gesture is required to lock when not in fullscreen.
- Transitioning to fullscreen and pointer lock then exiting fullscreen
should maintain pointer lock. (User gesture required to enter fullscreen)
- While locked, moving the mouse indefinitely in any direction must
continue to provide non zero movementX/Y values.
I'm considering starting some pointer lock tests with testharness.js. The
only solution I see is to provide instructions in many tests
for manual actions and observations.
I appreciate any best practice suggestions, or pointers to other
specifications with similar challenges. So far I see geolocation tests
provide manual instructions.
Longdesc also has manual tests. The ones at
http://github.com/chaals/longdesc-tests are looking like they will be
accepted as actual tests. There is *1* automated test, which I haven't
tried to put it into testharness yet.
