Manifest support was added to the 2.0 branch codebase in bug xxx (TODO, get bug number).

We may add more features to the manifest support so that we can support new functionality, but the basic manifest support is complete as of this time (2011-1-4)

Possible extensions to basic manifest support

  • Ability to mark a test as an EXPECTED-FAILURE (potentially on a per platform basis)
  • Ability to mark a test as "random" (potentially on a per platform basis)
    • Do both of these so that they make sense with the way that xpcshell and reftest do this (they already have syntax in their manifests for such tests)
  • May need manifest addition for http enabled tests and these tests could optionally load a sjs file (see xpcshell and reftest for examples of how they handle tests like this).
  • Conditional skip on a per-platform basis (other conditions too?)
