Hi, Thank you very much for your explanation.

Do >this only if you are sure about the obtained out-put and it is correct output. Rebase-lining is nothing but copying the "correct" actual outputs of the tests to >respective expected files. You can do this using --reset-results option also. But check upstream if they are broken in actual webkit also before rebase-lining. How to do the rebase-lining ? Is there a command line to do it ? running "run-webkit-tests --gtk --skipped=ignore --no-launch-safari --root=$ROOT css1 --reset-results" it will regenerate the expected files. But how the be sure that tests are passing when running "run-webkit-tests --gtk --skipped=ignore --no-launch-safari --root=$ROOT css1"? May be all the tests will pass successfully since we are generating expected results? >But check upstream if they are broken in actual webkit also before rebase-lining. How to do it.
