Remove as many remote connections from tests as possible

Open englehardt opened this issue 7 years ago • 1 comments

Nearly all of our tests require an external network connection to run. This is mostly a result of our choice to use localtest.me, which resolves to localhost.

I think we can get the same functionality by using the network.dns.localDomains pref in Firefox. It accepts a comma separate list of domains which, when set, will resolve to localhost. See this test as an example.

localtest.me doesn't resolve anymore for me, so the tests keep failing locally. It appears that they are partially working when run on GitHub Actions but I'm still going to prioritize replacing them.
