This is documented to be more performant.
The substitution was made on frontend code, too (i.e., the one in /static),
because Date.now() is supported since IE 9, and we are life supporting only
IE 11.
Commands:
find . -name *.js | xargs sed --in-place "s/new Date().getTime()/Date.now()/g"
find . -name *.js | xargs sed --in-place "s/(new Date()).getTime()/Date.now()/g"
Not done on jQuery.
- The test now ensures that all three key events are fired when
sending keys. Previously, only the 'keypress' event was sent,
which failed to trigger very slow code on webkit browsers (as
it is triggered by 'keyup'). All three events should really be
sent whenever sending keys to the browser to ensure that we're
adequately testing real behavior. See the 'sendkeys' plugin
for more; it only sends 'keypress'.
