Warnings in tests don't do anything but log that a problem has occurred. But, when the warnings are not noisy, this is often useful for tracking the cause of intermittent failures. Similarly, warnings about real problems are helpful when running debug builds, but we are being spammed with so many warnings that it is hard to imagine they can all be real problems. If they are, then we are doing a poor job of keeping up with them. _______________________________________________ dev-platform mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-platform
