Testcases: init pointer in a predictable position
Patch status: merged
Patch by Tony Crisci
Long description:
Tests may disturb the pointer in their normal operation that may lead to unexpected results in later tests using that display. Reset the pointer before a test begins to (0, 0) to save test developers from related "gotchas" and reduce multi-monitor test boilerplate.
