Bug 1610850 - Part 1: Switch BrowsingContext when navigating parent to remote,
(deleted), text/x-phabricator-request
Details
Bug 1610850 - Part 2: Tests for replacing parent process BrowsingContext,
(deleted), text/x-phabricator-request
Details

Let me know if my STR is valid:

  • ensure fission is enabled
  • open about:robots
  • open the browser console
  • evaluate gBrowser.selectedBrowser.browsingContext.id to see what is the current BrowsingContext ID.
  • navigate to mozilla.org
  • re-evaluate gBrowser.selectedBrowser.browsingContext.id and see that the ID did not changed.

The BrowsingContext ID changes when you navigate to about:robots, but not when you navigate from it.

Blocks: fission
Priority: -- → P3

kmag says we want these navigations to create new BrowsingContexts. We should add some tests for these navigations.

Nika asked me to assign this bug to her.

Alphan, why is SessionHistory bug 1602501 related to this bug?

I will remove the see also tag since bug 1602501 does not happen with fission enable.
