no-cpows-in-tests

Rule Details

This rule checks if the file is a browser mochitest and, if so, checks for possible CPOW usage by checking for the following strings:

• “gBrowser.contentWindow”
• “gBrowser.contentDocument”
• “gBrowser.selectedBrowser.contentWindow”
• “browser.contentDocument”
• “window.content”
• “content”
• “content.”

Note: These are string matches so we will miss situations where the parent object is assigned to another variable e.g.:

var b = gBrowser;
b.content // Would not be detected as a CPOW.
