It looks like I made a comment (that I don't even remember at this point :) ) which may have triggered this.
fwiw, I try to respect how other platforms are maintaining their code because I'd like other people to do the same even if they may think may platform is odd. In this case, what is desired is very clearly spelled out in the file: http://trac.webkit.org/browser/trunk/LayoutTests/platform/gtk/Skipped#L4 I don't know why that was added because I didn't do it :). If one disagrees with that comment, it seems like a very reasonable path to take would be to figure out who wrote that (which isn't hard in git or svn) and* take it up with them/the reviewer of that patch to understand if there is some reason for this peculiarity* (and then maybe clarify the comment in some way). dave On Fri, Sep 3, 2010 at 9:54 AM, Jeremy Orlow <[email protected]> wrote: > I promise to only put IndexedDB tests in the indexeddb directory. :-) > > On Fri, Sep 3, 2010 at 5:52 PM, Darin Adler <[email protected]> wrote: > >> On Sep 3, 2010, at 5:50 AM, Jeremy Orlow wrote: >> >> > Recently in a code review for IndexedDB, I was told that I should be >> adding every test individually to GTK's skip list. >> >> That doesn’t sound quite right.
