Dynamically-created iframe not loading properly in Firefox

[drrnkin]

What is your Scenario?

A test loads a page that dynamically inserts an iframe. element and loads that content. The iframe fails to load.

What is the Current behavior?

In Firefox, the iframe does not load at all (in any version of TestCafe that I have tried; 1.x, 2.x, 3.x).

Note that there's an error about querySelectorAll in the console. In the provided sample, the main.ts file simply imports Highcharts (a popular charting library: https://www.highcharts.com/) and that's enough to cause the issue. I don't have the source so I can't whittle it down further.

What is the Expected behavior?

Simple test at https://github.com/drrnkin/testcafe-iframe should pass. The test should detect the content in the iframe that is dynamically created by a script in the iframe. The test does not pass in Firefox in any version of TestCafe.

Expected: test should pass in Firefox and all other supported browsers.

This is still an issue with same steps.

This is a rare, low-priority use case, and a possible fix would be quite complex. As a workaround, please use Chrome for this case.
