This lets us ensure web +compatibility between _different_ WebDriver implementations for +different browsers. + +In addition to the WPT tests, geckodriver and webdriver have +unit tests. These are written in Rust, but you must explicitly +tell mach to build these by adding the following line to your [mozconfig]: + +```make +ac_add_options --enable-rust-tests +``` + +Tests can then be run by using the `test` sub command for [cargo] in the +specific source folder: + +```shell +% cd testing/geckodriver/src +% cargo test +``` + +To run the more extensive WPT tests you can use mach, but first +make sure you have built Firefox: + +```shell +% ./mach build +% ./mach wpt testing/web-platform/tests/webdriver +``` + +As these are functional integration tests and pop up Firefox windows +sporadically, a helpful tip is to suppress the window whilst you +are running them by using Firefox’ [headless mode]: + +```shell +% ./mach wpt --headless testing/web-platform/tests/webdriver +``` + +The `--headless` flag is equivalent to setting the `MOZ_HEADLESS` +output variable. In addition to `MOZ_HEADLESS` there is also +`MOZ_HEADLESS_WIDTH` and `MOZ_HEADLESS_HEIGHT` for controlling the +dimensions of the no-op virtual display. This is similar to using +Xvfb(1) which you may know from the X windowing system, but has +the additional benefit of also working on macOS and Windows. + +As you get in to development of geckodriver and Marionette you will +increasingly grow to understand our love for [trace-level logs]. +They provide us with the input—the HTTP requests—from the client +(in WPT’s case from the tests’ use of a custom WebDriver client), +the translation geckodriver makes to the [Marionette protocol], +the log output from Marionette, its responses back to geckodriver, +and finally the output—or the HTTP response—back to the client. + +The [trace-level logs] can be surfaced by passing on the `-vv` +flag to geckodriver through WPT: + +```shell +% ./mach wpt --webdriver-arg=-vv testing/web-platform/tests/webdriver +``` + +[Web Platform Tests]: http://web-platform-tests.org/ +[cargo]: http://doc.crates.io/guide.html +[headless mode]: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Firefox/Headless_mode +[mozconfig]: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Developer_guide/Build_Instructions/Configuring_Build_Options +[trace-level logs]: TraceLogs.md +[Marionette protocol]: /testing/marionette/Protocol.md -- cgit v1.2.3
