I ran crashtest/reftest/marionette/xpcshell/mochitest on emulator-x86-kk, have filed related bugs and make them block bug 753928. Basically:

1) need to carry "--emulator x86" automatically (bug 996443)
2) to add x86 emulator for xpcshell tests (bug 996473)
3) PROCESS-CRASH at the end of reftest/crashtest (bug 996449)

With some temporary solutions to above, all the test variants run on emulator-x86-kk and are about six times faster than ARM emulators.

Best regards,

There are tests that instruct the emulator to trigger certain HW events.
We can't run them on actual phones.

To me, the idea of switching to a x86-based emulator seems to be the
most promising solution. What would be necessary?

We'd need these things:

1 - a consensus we want to move to x86-based emulators, which presumes
that architecture-specific problems aren't likely or important enough to
warrant continued use of arm-based emulators

2 - RelEng would need to stand up x86-based KitKat emulator builds

3 - The A*Team would need to get all of the tests running against these
builds

4 - The A*Team and developers would have to work on fixing the
inevitable test failures that occur when standing up any new platform

I'll bring this topic up at the next B2G Engineering Meeting.
