            Bug ID: 272589
           Summary: device orientation: Consider implementing Automation
                    section from the spec (i.e. WebDriver support)
           Product: WebKit
           Version: WebKit Nightly Build
          Hardware: Unspecified
                OS: Unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Tools / Tests
          Assignee: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
          Reporter: rakuco at webkit.org

See https://w3c.github.io/deviceorientation/#automation, which covers some WebDriver endpoints that are helpful for providing fake readings useful for testing the API. We currently use in web-platform-tests, as this is the only way to make sure that this API is reporting the right events in a predictable way that does not depend on actual hardware.

To be clear, https://w3c.github.io/deviceorientation/#automation relates to https://w3c.github.io/sensors/#automation since both specs use similar automation concepts and sensors, but special care has been taken to avoid making the Device Orientation spec depend on the Generic Sensors one and on definitions from other sections of the latter.

WPT's test_driver already has support for it in https://web-platform-tests.org/writing-tests/testdriver.html#sensors
