Sdk: 1.24.1 + test with content_shell hangs forever

[MikeMitterer]

I tried it on the cmdline and with IJ - always the same result - it hangs forever with error message

After downgrading to 1.23.0 it works.

Can you provide instructions on how to reproduce the problem, the subject line "1.24.1 + test with content shell hangs forever" does not convey much.

[clairesarsam-wf]

I can reproduce this on https://github.com/cleandart/react-dart with the following:

Dart VM version: 1.24.1
test version: 0.12.22+1

$ git clone [email protected]:cleandart/react-dart.git
$ cd react-dart
$ pub get
$ pub run test -p content-shell

The result is that the process hangs outputting loading logs until you kill it, or, if you wait around 5 minutes, it times out.

In my daily work I'm using Java (Server + Android) and Dart for the Browser part. For scripting Python.
All my apps are running smoothly but if a problem occurs it is quite often Dart related! Compatibility problems, Analyzer problems, Dartium crashes after a few hours with memory problems (no idea if it's my app or if it's Dartium...)

It's getting better - no doubt but after 4 years of Dart it is still feels a bit like a Beta version

[aaronlademann-wf]

I can reproduce exactly the same as @clairesarsam-wf.

Also - https://github.com/dart-lang/test/pull/640 seems to have been aimed at resolving the issue, but the issue is still present for myself as well as a handful of colleagues. I've even tried completely uninstalling / re-installing the SDK with no luck.

[robbecker-wf]

A few devs inside Workiva have verified that upgrading macOS to Sierra has resolved the tests hanging issue. (I'm on 10.12.5)

[latos]

content shell hanging is also a problem for us after updating the SDK. Were already on Sierra previously with no problem, now after updating the SDK, it's broken.

(Aside, there also seem to be internal breaking changes in the SDK that we had to work around with custom package versions - this release seems rather problematic in general :( )

[robbecker-wf]

@latos and you're updated to 1.24.2 (not just 1.24.1) ?

[MikeMitterer]

@robbecker-wf I'm also on 1.24.2 - same problem! Mac OS is El Captain 10.11.6

[latos]

@robbecker-wf 1.24.2 is what I had with the problem

[MikeMitterer]

Exactly two moth and and it still doesn't work!!!

[anders-sandholm]

@MikeMitterer , sorry that this is still an unresolved issue.
@a-siva , wondering if we were ever able to reproduce?

[MikeMitterer]

@anders-sandholm Can I help to reproduce the problem?

[kevmoo]

content-shell is no longer supported

[latos]

@kevmoo What are we supposed to use now?

[zoechi]

@latos build package with Chrome. Chrome now has headless mode.
