Usually a test is disabled, with a bug filed to re-enable it, when a WebKit bug makes it impossible to run the test (e.g. it crashes DumpRenderTree) or makes the test produce different results on each run (this can also be a bug in the test). The skipped lists are platform-specific, so they are not a good way to deal with such situations. _______________________________________________ webkit-dev mailing list webkit-dev@lists.webkit.org http://lists.webkit.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/webkit-dev
