Hi,
This is an announcement of a project that may be of interest. The idea
is to run test cases automatically on some versions of the main
browsers. Test results should help authors/spec authors/vendors see what
feature is implemented where and vendors could integrate these tests in
their regression testing framework.
For now the framework is able to run a subset of WebKit and Mozilla
automated tests. For the WebKit tests in particular, it runs the
LayoutTests that use the layoutTestController.dumpAsText() API and
compare result with a testcase-exepected.txt file.
Results are visible on http://www.browsertests.org. Note that there are
some features not implemented or limitations that result in tests that
should pass which fail and reversely. Source code and some documentation
is available at http://code.google.com/p/browsertests/.
One of the possible future improvements is to run Mozilla tests using
DumpRenderTree. That means that Mozilla tests could be integrated in
WebKit's automated testing harness.
If you have questions/suggestions/ideas they're welcome. There's also a
discussion group on http://groups.google.com/group/browsertests.
Sylvain
