Minutes

Post all-hands discussion

AutomatedTester

ochameau, jdescottes, and yulia going to be finishing up the DevTools related work on CDP.

What is then left of the automation parts will be left to my team to complete.

We set some lose goals, and they were essentially around releasing so we can get early user feedback.

This will hopefully help the Puppeteer developers approach Firefox with a bit more tangibility.

Patrick Brosset did a talk about DevTools and how they are working towards web compatibility, and made a small mention of our work.

jdescottes

[inaudible]

ato

Should we do some triage of bug puppeteer-mvp?

What do we need for an MVP?

AutomatedTester

That sounds like a good idea.

Alex done good work on getting the Gutenberg tests running.

Then if we also get some of the Puppeteer examples working, then we might be in a state where we can put this into hands of users.

ato

Is there a deadline?

AutomatedTester

There will need to be one, but it depends on what we can deliver.

ato

Is the MVP scoped to just delivering a server, or also a functioning client, i.e. fork of Puppeteer?

AutomatedTester

Preferably something that works for end users.

ochameau

We need to have a list of requirements.

For example, passing these examples and these Puppeteer tests.

AutomatedTester

Yes, I’d like to approach product with a list.

ochameau

Most of this will be influenced by engineering, because that’s the bottleneck.

jdescottes

Harald seemed content with having a deadline with flexible content

How polished do they want the release? There are a couple of factors here that are influenced by things not trackable in Bugzilla.

ato

On that topic, I want to flag the security review as a concern from my end.

Getting any traction on that has so far been unsuccessful.

I believe we have done all the necessary paperwork, but I’ve not heard anything back.

Current work/coming up next

• ochameau:
  • Remote tests now run in a dedicated remote job on Treeherder (example)
  • Landed a few tweaks to support running Puppeteer tests and/or against latest Puppeteer revision (instead of 1.6)
    • Like prepend Headless in browser description, expose a real user agent, emit targetCreated for the browser target, …
  • Submitted a very minimal support of browser context in bug 1560301
    • This is based on Juggler. This is also necessary to run Puppeteer tests.
  • alex/julian:
    • Julian suggests to land the WIP patches as-is with very minimal tests or no test in order to ease running gutenberg tests as I (alex) do locally
    • Concensus was yes, if it helps unlock other work
• jdescottes:
  • It would be great if we could some basic typing functionality working, even if we don’t get the more advanced key combinations working
• ato:
  • Been busy on other things, but will try to follow up on bug 1540655 tomorrow

Other announcements

• jeinbinder suggested that input from Firefox developers could be useful in the development of new Puppeteer APIs
  • ato volunteered to be flagged for feedback, and he can relay any important discussions to this meeting
