Update testharness.js to work around our lack of support for MessagePort in service workers, similarly to what was already done for Edge.

What does this do for Firefox?

My patch makes every browser except Chrome use postMessage on the service worker instead of using MessagePort. The comment was explaining that using MessagePort was to work around a bug in Chrome. I could make the change minimal by detecting WebKit but I do not know of a good way to do so.

Note that using window.safari is not suitable because it won't work in WKTR, only in Safari.

r=me. Are you going to push this change upstream as well?
Comment 14 youenn fablet 2017-10-28 10:29:36 PDT
I think this is good enough for WebKit trunk and we should probably try to have a better plan when upstreaming WPT if needed.

I am surprised we are not able to unskip some previously timing-out tests.
I guess there is some additional missing support for these tests.
Maybe we should wait for this additional support before committing this patch.
In that patch, we could then unskip some tests.

As discussed offline, tests are stuck *before* even getting there. They're stuck on:
function wait_for_update(test, registration) {
  if (!registration || registration.unregister == undefined) {
    return Promise.reject(new Error(
      'wait_for_update must be passed a ServiceWorkerRegistration'));
  }

  return new Promise(test.step_func(function(resolve) {
      registration.addEventListener('updatefound', test.step_func(function() {
          resolve(registration.installing);
        }));
    }));
}

Because we do not fire the "updatefound" event and registration.installing is null. Brady is working on this.

Also Youenn, I think we are going to hit the expired certificate issue because the first thing the tests do is fetch the script containing the tests from the service worker and those tests run over HTTPs. I believe we need to fix this sooner rather than later. We normally ask the client about the certificate but we currently fail to do so for fetches from service workers.

Not this exact change. We'll either have to push a better change upstream or implement MessagePort support (there is a bug tracking this on me). For now, I am merely trying to get tests started downstream.
Comment 20 youenn fablet 2017-10-28 12:00:24 PDT
Since this is a change to WPT testharness.js and we want to keep the change, we should probably skip importing testharness.js (see LayoutTests/imported/w3c/resources).

OK, if it takes time to have the full right behavior, we may want to do something similar getRegistration() returning null which allows to go to the meat of the tests sooner.
Is there a way to hack some of testharness.js infrastructure to check whether we are missing other stuff?

The issue here is that service worker is not attached to a webpage, so we cannot call directly a webpage related callback that WTR is implementing.
I see several approaches:
-Reuse a webpage/webpage-callback, but it is difficult to know which webpage callback to pick
- Add a dedicated service worker callback (meaning probably new API for apps to control service workers)
- Alternatively, add a specific boolean switch at WebProcessPool level plus necessary C/ObjC API that would lower the security for WTR only.

Given that out may take time to get the full right behavior, I am indeed faking some things to get WPT tests started via Bug 178985.
