Depending on how the dialog was triggered, it may just work in headless

in your xpcshell.ini. Also, if you're in headless mode you can check it by
calling gfxPlatform::IsHeadless() in c++.
Thank you for the tips. I think I will resurrect the warning/error
dialog somehow.

Hello All,
As of Firefox 55 I intend to ship headless Linux support (Firefox
without a
GUI and X11 server connection). Headless mode is enabled via the
--headless
command line flag for Firefox and does not affect Firefox when running in
normal mode or on Windows and macOS
For those unfamiliar with the project, the main goal of headless browsing
is to make web developer workflow and testing with Firefox easier. There
are currently two ways to interact with headless Firefox by using either
SlimerJS or Marionette (WebDriver/Selenium).
Testing:
The Marionette test suite is now run in headless mode alongside the
normal
mode as a tier 2 test on try. There are also some basic xpcshell tests
that
use a simple headless browser. If the Marionette tests remain reliable, I
intend to bump them up to tier 1 in a few weeks [1].
In the near future, I'll also be enabling headless mode on Windows and
then
will start work on macOS. We also are going to investigate some possible
performance improvements for headless mode.
If you run into any issues please file a bug in the new headless
component
[2].
This sounds interesting.
On local machine, when I added a modal error dailog as a response to an
error condition, which happens to be artificially created and tested in
xpcshell test, the test fails because the screen or whatever is not
available. Fair enough, but it was rather disappointing to see such a
feature needed to be disabled due to xpcshell test failing.
Does this new approach take care of such an issue in a more or less
developer-friendly manner? Maybe we have a global flag to see if
the program runs in headless mode?
(Then I can do "if(!headless_mode) show the dialog on the screen", etc.)
TIA
