Focus/Blur

[JonWatkins]

Currently any tests using focus/blur events in Firefox will currently fail unless the window has focus. I am currently running multiple launchers and have an event listener to trigger a method when an input looses focus. I have a test that works similar to this:

it('Should trigger the blur event', function () {
   var input = document.getElementById('text-input');
   spyOn(form, 'blurHandler');
   input.focus();
   input.blur();
   expect(form.blurHandler).toHaveBeenCalled();
});

This runs in chrome, but Firefox will not run the text case unless I manually focus the window and refresh the page

I had found a little bit of information on a user_pref "focusmanager.testmode" which was related to selenium testing, so I have tried adding a custom launcher to my karma config like so:

{
   browsers: ['Chrome', 'FirefoxAllowFocus'],
   customLaunchers: {
      FirefoxAllowFocus: {
         base: 'Firefox',
         prefs: {
            'focusmanager.testmode': true
         }
      }
   }
}

Unfortunately this also does not have any effect on the failing unit tests.

+1. It would be great to have an option for focusing the window when the tests start.
