Re: Are crashtests allowed to access chrome (e.g. set preferences)?
Now that bug 792029 has landed, you should be able to use SpecialPowers in crashtests.

Sadly this feature is disabled on mozilla-central and mozilla-aurora. So I would have to set two preferences to get access to all the features. Now I see that crashtests are getting run through the reftest framework and wonder if there is a way to modify preferences before the test, or is that forbidden? In either way, what would be the best way to get those tests into the tree? I assume a place like /dom/media/tests/crashtests/ is a good location? Thanks!

I will make use of it. Sadly it cannot set the preference globally for all the tests referenced by that crashtests.list file. -- Henrik ___ dev-platform mailing list dev-platform@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-platform

There's a reviewed patch in https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=788967 that adds support for this, but apparently it had failures on try. -David -- 턞 L.
