Adds Firefox as browser to `dev-infra/browsers` with RBE compatibility. The default Firefox browser is not compatible similar to the default Chromium version exposed by `rules_webtesting`. The Angular Components repository will use this browser target as it enables RBE support. Also it gives us more flexibility about the Firefox version we test against. The version provided by `rules_webtesting` is very old and most likely not frequently updated (based on past experience). PR Close #38029

# Browser configuration and versioning for testing of Angular
|
|
|
|
Within the Angular organization, we use Chrome and Firefox to perform most of the local testing,
|
|
and rely on Sauce Labs and BrowserStack to do cross-browser testing on our CI.
|
|
|
|
The version of Chrome used in tests within this monorepo is configured and controlled via
|
|
Bazel and `puppeteer`. We manually keep the configuration of these two tools in sync to
|
|
create a consistent testing environment across unit, e2e, and integration tests.
|
|
|
|
## Bazel
|
|
|
|
Bazel `karma_web_test_suite` and `protractor_web_test_suite` targets will use Chromium
|
|
or Firefox provisioned by `//dev-infra/browsers`. The version of Chrome and Firefox are
|
|
specified in the `chromium.bzl` and `firefox.bzl` files in `/dev-infra/browsers`.
|
|
|
|
The process of updating the Chrome or Firefox version is not straightforward, but below
|
|
are dedicated sections for each browser.
|
|
|
|
## Updating Chromium
|
|
|
|
1) Visit https://chromium.woolyss.com/ and note the version (commit position) of the latest
|
|
stable version.
|
|
|
|
For example, "Google Chrome 83.0.4103.97 (756066) • Wednesday, 3 Jun 2020". Alternatively, you
|
|
can look in https://omahaproxy.appspot.com/.
|
|
|
|
1) Find the closest commit position number available for each platform in chromium-browser-snapshots:
|
|
https://commondatastorage.googleapis.com/chromium-browser-snapshots/index.html
|
|
|
|
For example:
|
|
* https://commondatastorage.googleapis.com/chromium-browser-snapshots/index.html?prefix=Linux_x64/756066/
|
|
* https://commondatastorage.googleapis.com/chromium-browser-snapshots/index.html?prefix=Mac/756053/
|
|
* https://commondatastorage.googleapis.com/chromium-browser-snapshots/index.html?prefix=Win/756065/
|
|
|
|
You can download Chromium for your local platform and double check that the `--version` matches
|
|
up with what you expect.
|
|
|
|
For example:
|
|
``` bash
|
|
$ ~/Downloads/chrome-mac/Chromium.app/Contents/MacOS/Chromium --version
|
|
Chromium 83.0.4103.0
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
2) Update the chrome & chrome driver build numbers in `dev-infra/browsers/chromium/chromium.bzl`
|
|
and run either run `bazel query @org_chromium_chromium_amd64//...` to prompt Bazel to calculate
|
|
the new `sha256` for each platform binary or determine the new `sha256` values manually.
|
|
|
|
Here is an example with `curl` & `shasum`:
|
|
``` bash
|
|
curl https://commondatastorage.googleapis.com/chromium-browser-snapshots/Linux_x64/756066/chrome-linux.zip | shasum -a 256
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Puppeteer
|
|
|
|
Visit https://github.com/puppeteer/puppeteer/blob/master/docs/api.md to determine which version
|
|
of puppeteer corresponds to the version of Chrome desired. Then update
|
|
`scripts/puppeteer-chrome-versions.js` and all of the puppeteer versions throughout the repo,
|
|
|
|
* `package.json`
|
|
* `aio/package.json`
|
|
* `aio/tools/examples/shared/package.json`
|
|
|
|
and their corresponding `yarn.lock` files.
|
|
|
|
## Firefox
|
|
|
|
In order to update Firefox, open the `dev-infra/browsers/firefox/firefox.bzl` file and update
|
|
the repository URLs to the desired version. e.g.
|
|
|
|
```bzl
|
|
platform_http_file(
|
|
name = "org_mozilla_firefox_amd64",
|
|
licenses = ["reciprocal"], # MPL 2.0
|
|
sha256 = "bde6e020556a21561e4b8d7aaecf8db7077951f179b98ca5d0305435bc6802c9",
|
|
# Firefox v78.0
|
|
urls = ["https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/78.0/linux-x86_64/en-US/firefox-78.0.tar.bz2"],
|
|
)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Go to the `urls` property and update the URL by replacing all `78.0` occurrences with the
|
|
version you intend to use. Once done, do the same change for other platforms (such as `macos`).
|
|
|
|
Finally, update the `sha256`checksum of the browser archives. You can do this by downloading the
|
|
artifacts from the URLs you just updated, and then running on those files: `sha256 <path>`.
