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?
Best regards

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.
