Webmediaplayer error when running tests

[jonathanbataire]

Sometimes run into the following error when running thess tests. Seem to be a memory leak bug in chromium

• harness v2.4.0
• Can not replicate in v3.0.10

ConsoleMessage {
    _type: 'error',
    _text: 'Blocked attempt to create a WebMediaPlayer as there are too many WebMediaPlayers already in existence. See crbug.com/1144736#c27',
    _args: [],
    _stackTraceLocations: [ [Object] ]
  },

recently been working on this PR https://github.com/medic/config-ug-vht/pull/803 which introduces a geopoint widget in forms
this has made this issue more persistent. Found some solutions

problem:

Rapidly referencing harness object (like in a loop), while filling in forms with widgets, without restarting harness.

solution:

• some tests were badly written not optimal. rewrote these for optimization.
• group tests in nested describes where i can stop and start harness in the before and after hooks between problematic tests

Hey @jonathanbataire . I think harness.clear() in between tests should be sufficient between tests. Hopefully you don't actually have to start/stop. Are you finding this to be the case?

wasnt enough i think, its always been in the beforeEach but would still fail
ended up splitting the problematic tests into separate test suites
