We need some kind of element/component to allow resizing between two other elements.

Documentation for the available options of xul splitter: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Tech/XUL/splitter

An example usage of it is to split between the split console and the selected tool: https://dxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/devtools/client/framework/toolbox.xul#146.

One requirement is that we can use this to split two elements that are already added in the DOM so we can use it on existing code without needing to re-write them to construct their DOM in JS: https://dxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/devtools/client/inspector/inspector.xul#182
Another requirement: to be able to be hidden (i.e. one of the sections is collapsed along with the splitter).  This happens with the split console when it's not visible.  Could be done with CSS or managed within a component.
Component: Developer Tools: Framework → Developer Tools: Shared Components
Also it needs to have hooks available to (or built in support to) store last known size as a preference so we can restore the state after a toolbox reopen

I've talked with Brian and we were going to collaborate but I haven't had a chance to follow-up with him. That is a good start, needs a few tweaks but I think it's a good API. We also need to figure out how to make it easy to load in non-React content into the panels.

Brian, ping me when you want to move forward with this and I can help make something that we all can use.

It's very, very basic. I started using that in the new debugger but had to write my own. Nick wrote that really quickly and I'm sure he'd be fine to replace that with whatever we come up with. The way it works make it hard to have layouts that are split 3+ times.

Yep I am building the new splitter on top of SplitBox (which in turn is built on top of h-split-box.js).

Integration of SplitBox into the Inspector panel.

- Removing xul:splitter from inspector.xul
- Removing all remaining xul elements from inspector.xul! (as soon as bug 1294186 is fixed we might try to rename the file to inspector.(x)html to see what happens.
- The browser_inspector_pane-toggle-04.js fails for me. Patrick, what this test is supposed to do, any tips why it fails?
- inspector.css is setting height of .devtools-main-conten to `calc(100% - 1px);`, which is not nice. I couldn't figure out what takes the 1 pixel...

How are we dealing with component sharing with debugger.html? The Draggable and SplitBox components were created as part of the debugger.html project, and live in that repo. Now we're copying them in the main devtools repo to use them in the inspector. Will debugger.html use them from here, or will still be integrated as one built artifact that has all its dependencies built-in?

Review of attachment 8782435 [details] [diff] [review]:
-----------------------------------------------------------------

Thanks Honza. This works generally nicely. I have made a few comments in the code. And I have noticed a few important things while testing that I think we should fix:

- the markup-view min-width is gone somehow. So it's possible to resize the sidebar so big that the whole markup tree is going to be entirely hidden, making it impossible (or really hard) to grab the splitter again and resize the sidebar,
- none of the sidebar panels work anymore. They are all empty, like when you select a comment node for example,
- I was able to make the splitter jump erratically while dragging. Not sure how to reproduce this easily, but I switched to various docking positions a few times, and then just dragged the splitter around. In horizontal layout (when the sidebar is to the right of the markup-view), then if I drag slowly to the right, the splitter starts to jump like crazy all over the place, and an offset is introduced between the mouse position and the splitter position.
See this gif: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/714210/inspector-splitter-jumps.gif

I don't understand these numbers, initialWidth/Height and minSize.
Bug 1291972 recently landed and set adapted the min sidebar size to 350px, so why 300 here?
Also, can you use constants to describe these numbers instead? So they have names and comments.

Btw, this reminds me that when you worked on the sidebar refactoring to HTML, we decided to leave the allTabs menu to a follow-up bug, right? What's the plan for this? Before, users were able to resize the sidebar to something smaller (don't remember, maybe 200px?), because we had an overflow mechanism on the tabs and showed an allTabs drop-down menu to access the hidden ones. Now, we can't do that anymore. It'd be great to minimize as much as we can the negative effects devtools.html is having on the UX. This is a refactoring project that should be mostly invisible to users. Do you know when/if someone is working on this? Maybe the people in Taipei can help with this?

I see you've used the names left and right, does that mean that the sidebar will always be to the right? Does SplitBox support RTL?
Currently, the inspector does support RTL. Not everything works perfectly, but a lot of effort has been done, and a lot of bugs have been filed, so I'd like this to support RTL right from the start too.
Maybe it does, but at least left should be renamed as start and right as end to be more direction-agnostic.

Hm, I was surprised at first thinking that 'onResizeSplitterBox' actually meant that the splitter was moving. So I thought that you were doing this every time the splitter moved.
But this function actually is an event handler for window resize, which makes a lot more sense.
I think you should rename 'onResizeSplitterBox' to 'onWindowResize'. At least reading the function name just tells you when it is called, not what we expect to do inside it (which might change in the future, if we ever decide to do other things when the window gets resized).

Why do the tab IDs need to change (you added the "sidebar-panel-" prefix)?

It's not a huge deal, but we store these in a pref to remember which panel the user last selected. So with this change, the next time someone opens the inspector and had, say, the pref set to "animationinspector", then the rule-view will open instead.

Do we absolutely have to change these IDs?

There are no more XUL elements in this document. And we have both xmlns and xmlns:html pointing to the same URL. I think we can simplify this and remove xmlns:html and remove all html: prefixes throughout the document.

I don't know how the new splitter works, but if I'm just looking at the markup, I'm wondering why this is called a splitter *box*, instead of just a splitter.
After all, there's nothing in this element, and it sits between inspector-main-content and inspector-sidebar-container, so reading this file, I feel like this *is* the splitter.
Box implies that something will go inside it. Maybe that's what happens later, in JS, though.

Searching for a parent with class controlled seems a bit backward here. Why we would even look for inspector-sidebar-container first?

I don't know what controlled means here, but if it's always the sidebar that's controlled by the splitter, then why not just:

let panel = inspector.panelDoc.querySelector(".controlled");

I don't understand why this needs to be 100%-1px. But maybe we could use 100% and overflow:hidden ?

We've quickly chatted about this with James and I think that debugger.html should use the one from shared/components. James, is that correct?

Honza
Flags: needinfo?(jlong)
Yes, for now anything local in the debugger.html is temporary because there didn't exist anything else yet. We already have a process for copying over libraries from m-c that we need, so as soon as something comes available that should replace something, we can pull it over and work on using it instead.
Flags: needinfo?(jlong)
Long-term, I think when more things are using webpack we can share this stuff by simply publishing to npm.

Yeah, that was part of the last minute change that broke the side panels.
I removed this and introduced a new 'idPrefix' for the InspectorTabPanel
component. The component doesn't always need the prefix and so, now it's 
customizable through the prop.

Yes, there could be in the future and I wanted to avoid a collision.
But, I simplified the code and used:

There are blockers. E.g. the all-tabs-menu (Bug 1281789) is built on top of framework/menu module that is still using XUL internally and requires <xul:popupset> element in the doc. I created Bug 1297412 to fix this. Also, there is bug 1292592, the inspector is using SourceEditor (Fred Lin is looking at it)

So, I actually set the default xmlns to "xmlns="http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul" again. Note that, till the file uses *.xul extension the default NS (used by document.createElement) is always XUL no matter what you say in the markup.

Yes, totally agree, I don't like it either. The problem is that we don't have one root (application) React component that would render the rest of the UI using whole hierarchy of child components. At this point we are just rendering bits and pieces using React while the rest is plain HTML markup. When React comp is rendered it always needs a container (a parent node) to be rendered into - and this box is the parent node for <SplitBox /> React component.

I would like to use safer CSS selector.
I used "#inspector-splitter-box .controlled", but no strong opinion,
I can remove "#inspector-splitter-box" if you think it's better

This is puzzling me I can't explain why it's needed. I tried 'overflow:hidden', but the entire panel content jumps 1 px up and back when the Inspector panel is opened. Using the calc() is better.
I created a comment explaining why this is there.

All my comments from the previous review were addressed so I don't have much problems with the code changes. However I think there's a performance problem that we must address before landing this.
I wasn't able to reproduce the crazy jumping problem I described before, so indeed you managed to fix this, but now I see the splitter move really slowly. In facts it janks really hard when I move it fast, instead of moving smoothly following the mouse as it moves. I'm not going to do a gif screen recording of this because the framerate on the gif isn't going to show the problem, I guess you can reproduce locally.

Is this a left over from before, or do you actually need to select a parent ".controlled" element of another ".controlled" element?

This is weird, it feels ok on my machine. What exact page do you use?

All the other comments fixed.


One more thing. The test `browser_inspector_pane-toggle-04.js` fails for me. The dimensions of the hidden panel are different when switching into portrait mode, but it doesn't seem to be a problem. Remove?

I wrote this test, so I had a quick look. The test might have to be updated but I can trigger a bug when following the scenario of the mochitest. 

Have a look at the attached GIF. If you collapse the panel and then resize the window to force the layout to switch to vertical, the collapsed panel becomes visible (which is the bug this test was supposed to cover, but again this might have to be updated if the togglePane implementation changed).

I reproduce this on basically any page. It does depend on the page currently being inspected to some extent. For instance if the amount of markup and rules displayed in the inspector is big, it janks even more. But from my testing the splitter is janky when I move it even when the inspector is almost empty, albeit far less.
Note that the current splitter is not perfect either, moving it isn't as smooth as it could be, but the new implementation makes it worse for me.
In fact after testing some more, both implementations seem equally bad when the markup-view contains a lot of nodes. But that's an edge case this bug doesn't really have to worry too much about. At the very least, we should get similar performance when moving the splitter on medium markup-view content size.

I use https://www.amazon.com/ as a test, keeping the body node selected, not expanding any other nodes, and having the rule-view selected in the sidebar. With DevEdition, I can move the splitter pretty smoothly, the framerate is almost high enough for me to feel like the splitter is exactly following my mouse. 
With fx-team and this patch applied however, the lag is clearly noticeable, as I move my mouse from right to left to make the rule-view bigger, the splitter halts and jumps to catch up with my mouse like 3 or 4 times during the length of the resizing (I move across about 1000px). So it's a really big lag that gives the impression that the inspector is really slow.

Note that I test on a desktop PC: Dell Precision T1700, Intel Core i7 3.6GHz, 32GB RAM. So hardware isn't an issue here.

We're not consistent in this file whether we use an underscore prefix or not for event handlers and private methods.
Personally I don't think the leading underscore is important at all, but I think we should just take a decision one way or the other.
While you're working on this, do you think you could add another patch that changes all _on to on or the other way around?

Yeah, I have the same feeling.

I renamed this._onPanelWindowResize to this.onPanelWindowResize so, at least the patch is consistent.

I see `initialSize` here, but `this.props.initialWidth`, `this.props.initialHeight`, and `this.props.size` is used below. Which is it?

There are some test failing on try.

* devtools/client/inspector/test/browser_inspector_search-filter_context-menu.js
This one is puzzling, some comments:
- It looks like context menu items are using different implementation of `goUpdateCommand` since XUL->HTML?
- The test is calling (once):
  let onContextMenuPopup = once(searchContextMenu, "popupshowing");
  and waiting (twice)?:
  yield onContextMenuPopup;
  ...
  yield onContextMenuPopup;
  Am I missing something?
- The paste menu item state depends on the current clipboard content, it's a bit dangerous
- The test expects cmd_selectAll to be enabled even if the input field is empty?
- The attached patch just disables checking of clipboard menu-items (for now)

  This test comes from bug bug 1294937 (regression after Inspector Search box XUL -> HTML)

@gasolin, gl?


* devtools/client/inspector/rules/test/browser_rules_colorUnit.js
(and other tests sending VK_RETURN key event)
- I added `win.focus()` before sending an event to `win`


* devtools/client/inspector/fonts/test/browser_fontinspector_theme-change
I had to use `timeout()`, my feeling is that it's because PREVIEW_UPDATE_DELAY, see fonts.js, but I might be wrong.

I found something that makes it a lot faster for me, and it has nothing to do with CSS.

I was first worried about the reflows that are caused on each mouse move event because of this code in split-box.js:

      let innerOffset = x - win.mozInnerScreenX;
      size = endPanelControl ?
        (node.offsetLeft + node.offsetWidth) - innerOffset :
        innerOffset - node.offsetLeft;

win.mozInnerScreenX, node.offsetLeft and node.offsetWidth are always the same once you start dragging, and accessing them everytime probably causes reflows that slow the animation down.
You can instead calculate them in onStartMove and then just used a stored value.

But that doesn't make a lot of difference for me.

What does, however, is making the panels next to the splitter inert. For instance, when you make the sidebar bigger, you drag the splitter towards the left. And by doing so, your mouse goes faster than the splitter can follow it, and therefore ends up generating mouseover events on the markupview. Now, doing this shows the highlighter on whatever node you happen to be hovering over.
This has 2 effects:
- it slows down quite a lot the animation in my case
- it distracts users when all the want is drag the panel, not highlight nodes.

I've made a quick test, in onStartMove:

    [...doc.querySelectorAll(".controlled, .uncontrolled")].forEach(n => {
      n.style.pointerEvents = "none";
    });

and in onStopMove:

    [...doc.querySelectorAll(".controlled, .uncontrolled")].forEach(n => {
      n.style.pointerEvents = "auto";
    });

I think maybe instead we should just add/remove a class on the container that addds the pointer-events property instead, but this was enough for me to test and I got a much smoother dragging animation as a result.

In what way exactly did this test fail? Can you include a try build url where it did fail (i.e. without your timeout)? I don't really understand how your patch could cause a failure here. And PREVIEW_UPDATE_DELAY is only used when the text field in the font-inspector has its value updated, which is not the case in this test.
This test waits for the fontinspector-updated event which should be enough.

Obviously this R+ is also assuming you get a green try build.

* devtools/client/inspector/rules/test/browser_rules_edit-property-order.js
They fail because of the same reason (looks like focus might be the issue).

Some investigation below about browser_fontinspector_theme-change.js

I've been investigating this issue. We shouldn't just fix it by adding a timeout here.
I'm not yet 100% sure of the root cause, but I know where the problem occurs at least.

In fonts.js, onThemeChanged is called many times when the theme changes, instead of just once as you might expect. It's actually called once per frame that changes theme I believe.
Which is why you see a condition in this function like:
if (frame === this.chromeDoc.defaultView) {
to filter out events that are not related to the fontinspector frame.

But it turns out that with your patch, for some reasons, this condition evaluates to true more than once when we change themes.
And because that's called asynchronously, this messes up with the running of the test, and we're not catching the right fontinspector-updated events as a result.
So, yes, if you add some timeout to the test, then that will fix it, but really we need to go down to the root cause of why we're getting several times in this IF statement.

As a temporary measure, if you add this inside the IF:

      // Avoid calling update several times.
      if (newTheme === this.currentTheme) {
        return;
      }
      this.currentTheme = getTheme();

then that fixes the problem. This basically just checks that once we've run the callback with the new theme once, we don't try and run it again.

Upon further investigation, I saw that the callback is called twice with frame being inspector.xul, while without your patch, it's called only once with this frame.
So something you changed in inspector.xul makes the theme-switcher mechanism emit 2 events for the same frame.

Thanks for the analysis.

The callback is called twice because the theme-switching.js file is loaded twice in the inspector.xul frame. And it's loaded twice because the default NS has been changed to XHTML

I.e.:
<window html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">

I don't know why that happens.

For now, I reverted the default NS back to XUL (it's just the default, all the markup is using html: prefix so, it's really HTML). In any case, I am quite positive that this will disappear when we change the file name to xhtml.

I was also discussing min-width of the Inspector side-bar with Joe. Since the all-tabs-menu is now inplace we can change the min-width so, the user can save space (without collapsing it entirely).

I used min=50px and initial width=300px

So, why are these enabled now? And why was selectAll already enabled before? Did you go to the bottom of this? I remember testing this quickly last week but couldn't figure out what was happening. For starters, it seems like when running the test, we get different results than when testing manually.
The field should be empty here, so why would cut/copy/paste/selectAll be enabled?

I don't understand these NS changes to be honest. But assuming that we're only going to live with a XUL document for a short period of time and that it fixes our problems, I'm fine with this.
If you do understand the root cause of the influence of namespaces over the theme system, then I think an inline comment would be nice.

You have these 3 lines repeated in a few tests, maybe it's worth wrapping this into a helper function in head.js so you can make each test simpler.
In fact even let spectrum = cPicker.specttrum; could be moved there, as far as I can see, the spectrum variable is only used here.

function sendKeyToColorPicker({spectrum}, key) {
  let doc = spectrum.element.ownerDocument;
  doc.documentElement.focus();
  EventUtils.sendKey(key, doc.defaultView);

With this, you can simply do
sendKeyToColorPicker(cPicker, "RETURN");
in all these tests.

Ah, you also use the same thing for the cubic-bezier tooltip, so I still suggest using that helper function I mentioned, but changing it a bit so it works with all tooltips.

Ok, after all, it looks like you use this with any frame. So the helper function should rather be something like:

function focusAndSendKey(window, key) {
  window.document.documentElement.focus();

I was wondering why the initial width went from 450px to 350px, but after looking at release (where we still have the old sidebar splitter and tabs), I realized that its default value used to be 350px.
We changed it recently only to account for the fact that we didn't have the allTabs menu in your HTML rework of the tabbar.
So I'm fine to change it back to 350px.

We discussed about this on IRC and you mentioned to some tests might require a large sidebar to work. If that is the case, then I suggest setting the pref in the test before the toolbox opens, instead of changing values here if needed. You can use:
yield pushPref("devtools.toolsidebar-width.inspector", 500);

I'm wondering why the height is different from the width now? We used to only have one size for both directions.

As discussed on IRC, I agree that we should do this change. I would just like to make sure however that you've tested each of our panels when the sidebar is 50px. Do they adapt OK? Do they force a horizontal scrollbar at some stage?
I think they should do their best to resize with the sidebar, but after some limit where things would become unreadable/unusable, then there should be a min-width on the panel container that forces an overflow-x to become scroll.

I don't know what we call readable, but my feeling is that the panel become fairly unreadable yet before the width is only 50px. I think that the point here is to allow the user to quickly make space.
In any case this could be a follow up (just no to make this bug even bigger).

Updated patches will follow.

My feeling is that the test is wrong (manual testing just gives different results than what is in the test). Let me yet dig into this a bit more.

I have no idea why that happens. It might be just weird consequence of mixing XUL and HTML. 
Since this is short term solution, it isn't worth to waste time on this.

Here is the second (and last) patch.

I managed to fix almost all failing tests but, there are still some failures on try. The Inspector code is quite complex and there are no clues in the test-log what could be wrong. I need help from someone who wrote the code/tests. Patrick, can you look at the following failures?

1) devtools/client/inspector/rules/test/browser_rules_edit-selector_09.js
It says there are leaked windows in debug version of Firefox.

2) devtools/client/inspector/test/browser_inspector_pane-toggle-04.js
This seems to be OSX only, might be related to the min-width: 50px?

3) devtools/client/inspector/rules/test/browser_rules_filtereditor-appears-on-swatch-click.js and devtools/client/inspector/rules/test/browser_rules_eyedropper.js
Both these tests finishes too early. Appending: `yield waitForTick()` fixes the problem, but we should find the real reason.

During test I found the `hide sidebar animation` is missing when tap the sidebar toggle. But `show sidebar animation` still works. We can fix it in another bug anyway.

So, yes setting min-height (portrait mode) to 0 fixes the test failure.
Also the test on Windows need to asynchronously wait for recalc layout otherwise it passes (false positive). That's why I couldn't reproduce this on Win OS.

Update for:

* devtools/client/framework/test/browser_toolbox_textbox_context_menu.js
This test just opens a context menu on the screen. The modification sets focus to the Inspector's search box, because cut/copy/paste item state depends on what's currently focused (the focus element should be predictable not random).

* devtools/client/inspector/test/browser_inspector_search-filter_context-menu.js
The change sets focus to the Inspector's search box before opening the context menu.

Note that both tests can fail locally because checking cmd_paste command state depends on the current value in the clipboard (try should have an empty clipboared however).

I am yet attaching a temporary patch containing some changes that eliminates test failures. These could help use to track down the real problem (not supposed to land in this state).

* browser_rules_edit-selector_09.js
I used yield waitForTime(2000); at the end of the test and it seems to helped (in one of my try pushes, I can't repro locally). This might be the same reason as e.g. for browser_rules_eyedropper.js

* browser_rules_eyedropper.js, browser_rules_filtereditor-appears-on-swatch-click.js
Using waitForNextTick() at the end helps.
It looks like the test is finishing too early.

* browser_inspector_pane-toggle-04.js
This one just removes the line that tests the height prop of the panel. This fails on OSX and passes on others if waitFortTick is used after resizeTo(800, 300);

Attached patch bug1260552-tests.patch (obsolete) (deleted) — Splinter Review
So, here is a patch that fixes some mysterious test failures that I haven't been able to reproduce locally (tried Win/Mac/Linux builds, but no luck).
I am quite convinced that the real problem is with the tests not with the Splitter component implementation/integration.

The fixes are more of a workaround since I can't explain where the problem is.
Also, I am not able to fix the devtools/client/inspector/rules/test/browser_rules_edit-selector_09.js test - Try says there are memory leaks, see [1]). The test is just finishing too soon.

I tried `toolbox.destroy()`  or `Cu.forceCC/GC()` but, no luck. Only waiting for 2 sec really helps.

Also, I test devtools/client/inspector/test/browser_inspector_pane-toggle-04.js fails (behaves differently on OSX and Win). I can't found any workaround. Perhaps bigger refactoring of this test is needed, since the splitter markup is significantly different than before.

Try with this patch included:
https://treeherder.mozilla.org/#/jobs?repo=try&revision=439de8cc9aab&selectedJob=27206166

There is also this orange: 
devtools/client/debugger/test/mochitest/browser_dbg_addon-workers-dbg-enabled.j
Irrelevant?

---

I spent good amount of time looking for better fixes, but very little gain. I suggest to file a follo up bug for:

1) The leaking test (browser_rules_edit-selector_09.js)
2) The layout test (browser_inspector_pane-toggle-04.js)

... and move forward with the Inspector HTML migration. This bug is already blocking Code mirror integration and I'd really like to move it forward to.

Just a heads up, I launched a try run of your patches on top of my current GC/CC patches, to see if it changed anything [1]. 
Looks like it doesn't, but my try syntax includes the clipboard test suite, which seems to be consistently failing on :
- inspector/computed/test/browser_computed_search-filter_context-menu.js
- inspector/rules/test/browser_rules_search-filter_context-menu.js
- inspector/test/browser_inspector_search-filter_context-menu.js

It looks like it mess up with key shortcuts. 
I see devtools/client/inspector/rules/test/browser_rules_edit-selector_09.js open the webconsole on ESCAPE. Could you confirm this?

I realized that only after digging into memory leak which relates the the split webconsole being opened and not correctly destroyed at test end. Ideally the test framework would take care of that while closing the toolboxes.

Yeah, if the issue is that split console gets left open, we should have shared-head.js do `Services.prefs.clearUserPref("devtools.toolbox.splitconsoleEnabled");` in a cleanup function like here: https://dxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/devtools/client/framework/test/shared-head.js#94-99.

There's other tests that are doing this individually, and their code could generally be removed if it was done in shared-head: https://dxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/search?q=Services.prefs.clearUserPref(%22devtools.toolbox.splitconsoleEnabled%22)%3B&redirect=true
The split webconsole should be destroyed during toolbox.destroy, but the thing is that it is still initializing while the test ends. Locally it often throws:
  TypeError: this._networkRequests is null

That's because the webconsole is destroyed while it is still initializing. We do a getCachedMessages requests which takes some time to process and resolves after toolbox.destroy is called.

So, I don't think we can improve the test framework easily about that.
We may listen for all toolId+"init" event on gDevTools and ensure waiting for all toolId+"ready" before destroying stuff in the test framework, but that's sound rather complex.
We may also consider doing that in production code to avoid some race when stressing our tools?

Yeah, that doesn't sound like a good situation.  Not sure what the right thing to do is here, but just a couple thoughts: I wouldn't want to prevent a buggy tool from being able to prevent / delay toolbox shutdown due to it never resolving as ready (esp when considering addon panels).  Generally I'd prefer to be as responsive as possible when someone presses the close button or key shortcut, at least as far as visually removing the toolbox and then being able to re-open it ASAP.

Yes, I can confirm, the Console is opened.

I can see it clearly when putting:
yield waitForTime(10000) at the end of `testEditSelector` or `testAddMatchedRule`

Interestingly, the test fails if I put `waitForTime` at the end of `testEditSelector`. I wouldn't expect that.

browser_rules_edit-selector_09.js leak was related to this console opening in middle of the test, so I'm expecting it to be gone. I can look into any other leak if there is still some after this patch.
Looks like in only fails on devtools/server/tests/browser/browser_perf-realtime-markers.js
which is bug 1294009. I've just requested some more run on most test to ensure there is no intermittents.

Still investigating those. In each failing test, the test code was modified in order to focus the search input in the beginning of the test.

The tests fail both locally and on try, but for different reasons apparently.

On try, this makes the cut, copy & paste commands enabled in the context menu, while the test expects them to be disabled. Not sure why cut&copy become available, as the input is empty when the test starts.

Locally only the paste command is enabled (and using emptyClipboard() does not seem to help. In the meantime "select all" is disabled, since the input is empty, while the test expects it to be enabled.

Also related, browser_toolbox_textbox_context_menu.js fails for me locally on OSX, while it is succesful on try.

I've been observing the same results. I also tried to put `waitForTime` in the test code to see the menu at the screen. Cut/Copy items were really enabled even if there is nothing in the input box. 

When I right-clicked in the input-box manually (while the test is waiting on `waitForTime`) the menu appeared again with Cut/Copy properly disabled and the test properly finished. This made me think that the focus was wrong and not set to the input box.

I was also playing with `Toolbox._updateTextboxMenuItems`, but this seems to work properly.

Also, I was playing with:
let controller = searchBox.ownerDocument.commandDispatcher.getControllerForCommand("cmd_copy");
is(controller.isCommandEnabled("cmd_copy"), true, "cmd_copy is enabled");

And `isCommandEnabled` really returned true (which is unexpected since there is nothing in the searchbox). Could it be that the document has wrong controller associated? The process that decides whether these menu-items are enabled or not just seem to be wrong.

Made some more progress. First of all, before your patches the 3 failing tests here were really inaccurate. 
They aim to compare the context menu of a field before/after setting a value in the field, but the first state of the context menu was always taken before actually focusing the field. So the context menu was not actually related to the input field. This led to inconsistent menu items being enabled, such as "selectAll" while the input is empty. 

So I think it makes sense, since we force the focus in the field first, to update the initial asserts.
"selectAll" should be disabled, since the inputs are empty. 

"paste" is a bit more problematic, because we can't properly control the clipboard. The emptyClipboard helper actually only seems to clear the native clipboard on Windows (see Bug 666254). We can either assert Paste only on windows, or not assert it at all. In favor of the #1 option at the moment.

Thanks for the analysis Julian! (it goes inline with what I have been observing)

I think the remaining failure is linked to the visibility: collapse rule that was added to the selector #inspector-splitter-box .controlled.pane-collapsed in inspector.css 

The test is measuring the height of the hidden panel while the layout is changing. The goal of the test was to ensure that a collapsed panel could not appear by switching layout / resizing the container, since the panel was purely hidden using negative margins. Now it is hidden using "visibility: collapse", so I think it's safe to remove this test.

I ran a small try run removing the visibility collapse, and the test is passing [1], but I still think we should remove this test now, for the reasons mentioned above.

We don't have PGO results from this try push but as far as I can tell there are no regressions flagged in https://treeherder.mozilla.org/perf.html#/compare?originalProject=fx-team&originalRevision=8a1efb73e742&newProject=try&newRevision=dac041887725&framework=1&filter=damp&showOnlyImportant=0
