Darin and All,
Thanks for the useful info.

1- Are the expected-results files browser dependent? (are the ones "run-webkit-tests" creates for Qt identical to the ones it creates for Safari? Do I have to change that if I want to run the tests for gdk?)
2- When I run the "run-webkit-tests" for Qt, 238 test cases get skipped and only about 4100 get executed! I believe they're about 7700 on Safari!! Why is it that different?
3- Is there any parameter that needs to be passed to the "run-webkit-tests" script or to the "DumpRenderTree" in order to specify the browser's window dimensions?? I'm actually getting different results when I run "run-webkit-tests" for Qt on different devices!!

I couldn't access the IRC channel!! Is it still available?
Thanks,
