Re: [webkit-dev] chromium-cg-mac results

I agree that it is reasonable (and a good idea) to remove the chromium-cg-mac expectations from WebKit now, and I am willing to take the lead on doing so (although I will need help from WebKit committers). Please let me know if anyone agrees/disagrees with the following steps to do so: 1. remove

5. Moving forward, reviewers and committers take care not to re-add expectations when committing pending patches. While I expect svn will warn in most cases, I doubt that it will catch everything. 6. "Won't fix" any bugs related to chromium-cg results. Stephen. On Wed, Jan 4, 2012 at 9:10 AM, El

[webkit-dev] layout tests: how are some compared against image, and others only text?

2012-01-04 Thread Elliot Poger
What is it that causes some tests to require baseline images (and not text files) for comparison, while others require text and not image baselines? (I know that I can specifically SKIP comparison against IMAGE and/or TEXT using test_expectations.txt... but even without the use of test_expectation

[webkit-dev] Asking for review by pinging bugs---another approach

2012-01-04 Thread Adam Barth
Not to pick on anyone in particular, but when reading bugmail I occasionally see messages like "pinging for review." I review a lot of patches, but I don't find these messages particularly helpful because I don't know whether I'm supposed to review the patch. Another approach that might work bett
