The version field is now stored in the main `package.json` file rather
than in the base manifest. It is built into the final manifest during
the build script.
This makes it easier to communicate what the current version should be
to our `auto-changelog` script. It's also generally a more conventional
place to keep track of the version, even considering that we're not
publishing to npm.
The Firefox e2e tests now use the `.zip` file for testing the
extension. We've found this to produce more similar results to
production, compared to the old method of loading the unzipped
directory.
Passing in a `.zip` file to the Chrome driver didn't seem to work. I
didn't investigate this further to see if it was possible, but I'm not
sure it makes a difference on Chrome anyway.
A few inconsistencies in JSDoc formatting have been fixed throughout
the project. Many issues remain; these were just the few things that
were easy to fix with a regular expression.
The changes include:
* Using lower-case for primitive types, but capitalizing non-primitive
types
* Separating the parameter identifier and the description with a dash
* Omitting a dash between the return type and the return description
* Ensuring the parameter type is first and the identifier is second (in
a few places it was backwards)
* Using square brackets to denote when a parameter is optional, rather
than putting "(optional)" in the parameter description
* Including a type and identifier with every parameter
* Fixing inconsistent spacing, except where it's used for alignment
* Remove incorrectly formatted `@deprecated` tags that reference non-
existent properties
* Remove lone comment block without accompanying function
Additionally, one parameter was renamed for clarity.
The driver now has a page navigation function that can navigate to any
of the three primary pages used in the extension. Additional pages and
support of paths can be added later as needed.
* Specify type before parameter name
Various JSDoc `@param` entries were specified as `name {type}` rather
than `{type} name`.
A couple of `@return` entries have been given types as well.
* Use JSDoc optional syntax rather than Closure syntax
* Use @returns rather than @return
* Use consistent built-in type capitalization
Primitive types are lower-case, and Object is upper-case.
* Separate param/return description with a dash
Update `selenium-webdriver` to v4.0.0-alpha.5. Despite the fact that
this version has "alpha" in the name, the maintainer of
`selenium-webdriver` has described this release as stable [1].
A few APIs were removed or changed in v4, which required changes to our
Firefox webdriver.
The port used for webdriver communication can now be specified
manually. This was required to ensure the threebox tests kept working,
because they used two different driver instances. This new version of
`selenium-webdriver` now uses the same port for each instance of the
webdriver (unlike the old version, which generated a new port for each
one), so it was necessary to manually specify the port to prevent the
same port from being used for both instances.
`chromedriver` required an update, as the version we were using was not
compatible with the new W3C WebDriver protocol. I've updated
`geckodriver` as well, just to bring it in line with the version of
Firefox we are using.
