This test was disabled in bug 1525959. Let's re-enable it when possible.

This is being addressed in bug 1562844.

Re-opening because the test is still disabled.

When I run the test with ./mach test mobile/android/components/extensions/test/mochitest/test_ext_tabs_create.html

then I see the following output in adb logcat :

09-17 13:29:46.360  7089  7104 E GeckoConsole: [JavaScript Error: "BrowserApp.selectTab is not a function" {file: "chrome://geckoview/content/ext-tabs.js" line: 416}]

... and the test times out. This means that the test can only be re-enabled once the tabs API supports the tab.active property on GeckoView - i.e. bug 1565536

The test uses active here: https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/rev/7ed8e2d3d1d7a1464ba42763a33fd2e60efcaedc/mobile/android/components/extensions/test/mochitest/test_ext_tabs_create.html#38

Fixed by bug 1616625; test got re-enabled in https://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/rev/0636bd0463dd0cf9b4bc5e90e8212bc9948e0ff8
