Hi,

I believe most if not all of the ports have started using either
TestExpectations files or a combination of TestExpectations files

Can we explicitly switch to the TestExpectations files at this point
and drop support for Skipped files on the other ports (and perhaps
disable old-run-webkit-tests for all but apple win)?

Until NRWT can't handle cascaded TestExpectations - https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=65834, Qt port can't drop supporting Skipped files. We have many tests skipped in qt-5.0, qt-5.0-wk1, qt-5.0-wk2, wk2 Skipped lists. We can't migrate all of them to the only one TestExpectations.

And I disagree with disabling ORWT at all. Qt port still support using ORWT locally. It is better for gardening than NRWT. NRWT regularly has problems with generating new results for a given platform dir (qt,qt-5.0,qt-5.0-wk1,...), it doesn't support the good --skipped=only option . If folks don't want to use it, just not use, but
disabling for everyone by fiat isn't a friendly thing.


1. These are real weaknesses of nrwt, we should fix them. If gardening is better with orwt (i doubt that is the case, but I don't do gardening regularly), we should improve nrwt, i.e. reimplement features from orwt. 2. I believe basically everybody agrees that we should drop orwt, except you Ossy. Maybe I'm wrong. So, is there anybody still want to have support for orwt? If so, why?
