Firefox leaves data in `/tmp` after the run #80

Closed aozalevsky closed 3 months ago

aozalevsky commented 3 months ago

Unless fully and explicitly terminated selenium (geckodriver + firefox) https://github.com/mozilla/geckodriver/issues/299 leaves temporary data in /tmp that might accumulate fast during the rebuild of multiple reports in one campaign.

As an additional precaution, running temporary cleanups is a good idea.

Here is an example that checks and delete stale files older than 1hr

find /tmp -cmin +60 -type d -maxdepth 1 -regex ".*rust_.*\|.*Temp-.*" -exec rm -r {} \;
