Hi, Layout tests have lots of beautifull options. One out of them is to run a stand alone test. You can run it by just passing the full path of the test as argument run-webkit-tests script. You can run the test what ever you doubt about and see its results to find out what it is doing. You can even run a category of tests just by passing directory path to run-webkit-tests script.
running the tests individually is the best way to analyze what exactly they are testing. So, please follow it and make a document for your self. And once you are sure about your analysis, may be its not a bad idea to send it across to webkit-help list. That way you would clarify your doubts more clearly and would have helped the group a lot. I am not working on webkit now to give u straight answers, but i can give you generic ones like the once above :) -Sravan. 2011/9/14 PandaCanFly <[email protected]> > > i am sorry for disturb you.
