The test for text attribute changes in the misspellings test of test_textattrs.html consistently fails on Linux. The event is not generated. As a result, Orca won't be able to pick up the fact that something just got misspelled.
It's nice but I have this on windows as well.

I believe it's because document has busy state and we don't process selection (normal and spellcheck) changes in this case.
Initially state busy check has been added in bug 404380 to avoid crashes when caret move events are fired on startup. So possibly we should follow this way for spellcheck event. In this case all we need is to wait in mochitests when document will be loaded. Any opinions?
Sounds good Alex! If there's a way to fix this inside the Mochitest, go for it!

Comment on attachment 353216 [details] [diff] [review] patch Good catch! We should add the call to AddA11YEventListener to all files to make sure we always run with the correct document's state.

Comment on attachment 353216 [details] [diff] [review] patch Surkov, good idea to wait for a11y before testing :) Regarding: >+ var gTextAttrChangedEventHandler = { >+ handleEvent: function gTextAttrChangedEventHandler_handleEvent(aEvent) Why add "gTextAttrChangedEventHandler_handleEvent" here? Can we just use the simpler: handleEvent: function (aEvent)

At least it makes hard to debug JS - the name 'anonymous' is used in functions stack.

Alex, please create a mozilla-1.9.1 version of this Mochitest fix as well so we can get the Tinderboxes green on that tree for a11y as well.
