- https://blog.mozilla.org/webqa/2013/02/13/part-2-ui-testing-on-firefox-os-working-with-iframes/

- http://qa-selenium.mv.mozilla.com:8080/view/B2G/job/b2g.unagi.gaia.v1-train.ui/75/consoleFull
- this is because, while we wait on a new build with the IPC memory-leak fix, Dave Hunt did a pull to stablize our test environment, by restarting Gaia in-between tests:
- https://github.com/mozilla/gaia-ui-tests/pull/384
- IPC bug: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=841993 - Leaking ipc::Transport from 'opens' protocols
- Wi-Fi stability using Marionette _builds_ (not even just automation) is being addressed here, now:
