Hi Guys,
I was trying to execute the webkit test suite after i received a webkit build which have some local changes in it. I am working on linux (ubuntu 6.0.6). While executing the test suite using "WebKitTools/Scripts/run- webkit-tests" i got an error that "WARNING: Your platform is not recognized.....". Than i made a few changes in run-webkit-tests perl script and defined the value of $platform to gtk, qt and gcc (one by one), but all got failed with message as "Compiling DumpRenderTree failed!".

You shouldn't need to make any changes to run the layout tests for the Gtk port. Running "./WebKitTools/Scripts/run-webkit-tests -- gtk" is sufficient. As far as I'm aware, I'm the only one that has run the layout tests for Gtk. Many of the tests do not have the required platform-specific results so you will get many tests "passing" with messages like:

css1/basic/class_as_selector.html -> new (results generated in LayoutTests/css1/basic)

Other tests will fail, and some may crash or hang. DumpRenderTree for Gtk has been fleshed out enough that it makes it around half way through the tests before hanging. I've not investigated the current point at which it hangs -- it may be due to a bug in the Gtk port of WebKit, or missing functionality in the Gtk version of DumpRenderTree.

And I should say that improving DumpRenderTree for Gtk would be a great way to contribute. In it's incomplete state it has already helped catch several regressions in network loading behaviour. Patches for any improvements are welcome!

- Mark
