I created a Bugzilla ticket today[1] for an interesting challenge from
the WMF Mobile team, where the goal is to run a browser test that can
invoke site-specific browser permissions (in this specific case, to
allow the browser to invoke geolocation behavior to determine the user's
location).
At least for Firefox, the relevant permission is saved locally in a
SQLite database file associated with a specific Firefox user profile.
This works just fine my local workstation (where the profile exists),
but creates a test dependency that does not seem readily transportable
to other environments.
I'll continue to do further research on this, but I thought I'd post to
the list in case anyone has a brilliant insight as to how this might
work. And if I do manage to figure out a clever solution, I'll make
sure to share with the list!
Thanks,
Jeff
