Thom Chiovoloni 65e959c068 Bug 1357814 - Changes to sync's TPS tests to allow running from automation r=markh
1. Ensure we wait for browser-delayed-startup-finished
2. Parse the profile we're cleaning up from the cleanup phase name instead of
   using the selectedProfile.
3. Ensure that bookmark repair doesn't run randomly (this isn't necessary, but
   the repair code can make the actual reason for failure much more difficult to
   debug, and could probably cause a test to pass when it should not).
4. Add multiprocessCompatible flags so that TPS can still start in nightly (and
   because it is).

README

TPS is a test automation framework for Firefox Sync. See
https://developer.mozilla.org/en/TPS for documentation.

Installation
============

TPS requires several packages to operate properly. To install TPS and
required packages, use the INSTALL.sh script, provided:

  ./INSTALL.sh /path/to/create/virtualenv

This script will create a virtalenv and install TPS into it. TPS can then
be run by activating the virtualenv and executing:

  runtps --binary=/path/to/firefox


Configuration
=============
To edit the TPS configuration, do not edit config/config.json.in in the tree.
Instead, edit config.json inside your virtualenv; it will be located at
something like:

  (linux): /path/to/virtualenv/lib/python2.6/site-packages/tps-0.2.40-py2.6.egg/tps/config.json
  (win): /path/to/virtualenv/Lib/site-packages/tps-0.2.40-py2.6.egg/tps/config.json


Setting Up Test Accounts
========================

Firefox Accounts
----------------
To create a test account for using the Firefox Account authentication perform the
following steps:

1. Go to a URL like http://restmail.net/mail/%account_prefix%@restmail.net
2. Go to https://accounts.firefox.com/signup?service=sync&context=fx_desktop_v1
3. Sign in with the previous chosen email address and a password
4. Go back to the Restmail URL, reload the page
5. Search for the verification link and open that page

Now you will be able to use your setup Firefox Account for Sync.
