The WPTs test are extensive, but we've already caught a few bugs that slipped in during the development process (e.g. crbug.com/512509718, a JWK export/import bug for ML-KEM fixed by crrev.com/c/7887900), and we'd like to prevent oddities from getting baked into our implementation because we missed something (an old historical example: https://issues.chromium.org/issues/40365706). Ensuring that the algorithms are cryptographically correct is not as big of a worry (as we're using BoringSSL's implementation of the crypto). Performance is also not a huge concern, but it would be good to get this evaluated with in-the-world usage. /hubert -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "blink-dev" group.
