Referrer-WPT: Fix weird referrer test timing issue This CL fixes a very tricky timing issue I grappled with debugging: I noticed that a non-deterministic amount of the worklet-referrer tests always failed in Chromium when run from the wpt.live site, e.g., https://wpt.live/worklets/paint-worklet-referrer.https.html. This was NOT reproducible locally via any of the following: a.) `./wpt serve` and running the tests in Chromium b.) run_web_tests.py to run them automatically with Chromium I made a dummy WPT PR [1] just to trigger a wpt.live deployment so I could debug my changes in the wpt.live environment, where the tests were failing for some reason. The main referrer test window opens up a bunch of child windows which run a test, and report their results back to the main window IN ORDER. The test were failing for two reasons: - assert_equals: expected "LOADED" but got "RESOLVED" - assert_equals: expected (string) "RESOLVED" but got (object) object "[object Object]" This indicated some type of timing issue between the child windows, and I suspected that one window was reporting back its results when the main window was expecting a different child's results. I dug into the second assertion failure above, logging the "object". It was a timeout object automatically reported by the testharness. This made me think that the child windows were being kept open too long after their test finished, and automatically reported an "extra" timeout object back to the main window, when it was expecting a later child window's results. I finally realized that on line 3, there was a call `add_completion_callback(() => win.close())`, the intention being to close a child window after its test completed. I found in the testharness API docs, that add_completion_callback doesn't call the callback after the test completes, but only after *all* tests complete [2]. This means all child windows were being kept open for the entire duration of the main test. This caused some child windows to report the timeout object to the main window when the server is slow, like on the wpt.live site, but never was reproduced. The fix is to not use add_completion_callback. We could instead use add_result_callback which would work, but it is global, so it would end up attempting to invoke window.close O(n^2) times for O(n) tests (I've confirmed this). The best solution is to plumb each promise_test object through, and add a cleanup callback that closes the child window. This CL implements that. With this fixed, it might save a lot of debugging hours in the future \o/.

The web-platform-tests Project is a cross-browser test suite for the Web-platform stack. Writing tests in a way that allows them to be run in all browsers gives browser projects confidence that they are shipping software that is compatible with other implementations, and that later implementations will be compatible with their implementations. This in turn gives Web authors/developers confidence that they can actually rely on the Web platform to deliver on the promise of working across browsers and devices without needing extra layers of abstraction to paper over the gaps left by specification editors and implementors.
The most important sources of information and activity are:
#testing
on irc.w3.org; includes participants located around the world, but busiest during the European working day; all discussion is archived hereIf you'd like clarification about anything, don't hesitate to ask in the chat room or on the mailing list.

Note: because of the frequent creation and deletion of branches in this repo, it is recommended to “prune” stale branches when fetching updates, i.e. use git pull --prune
(or git fetch -p && git merge
).
See the documentation website and in particular the system setup for running tests locally.
The wpt
command provides a frontend to a variety of tools for working with and running web-platform-tests. Some of the most useful commands are:
wpt serve
- For starting the wpt http serverwpt run
- For running tests in a browserwpt lint
- For running the lint against all testswpt manifest
- For updating or generating a MANIFEST.json
test manifestwpt install
- For installing the latest release of a browser or webdriver server on the local machine.On Windows wpt
commands must be prefixed with python
or the path to the python binary (if python
is not in your %PATH%
).
python wpt [command]
Alternatively, you may also use Bash on Ubuntu on Windows in the Windows 10 Anniversary Update build, then access your windows partition from there to launch wpt
commands.
Please make sure git and your text editor do not automatically convert line endings, as it will cause lint errors. For git, please set git config core.autocrlf false
in your working tree.
The master branch is automatically synced to http://w3c-test.org/.
Pull requests are automatically mirrored except those that modify sensitive resources (such as .py
). The latter require someone with merge access to comment with “LGTM” or “w3c-test:mirror” to indicate the pull request has been checked.
In the vast majority of cases the only upstream branch that you should need to care about is master
. If you see other branches in the repository, you can generally safely ignore them.
Save the Web, Write Some Tests!
Absolutely everyone is welcome to contribute to test development. No test is too small or too simple, especially if it corresponds to something for which you've noted an interoperability bug in a browser.
The way to contribute is just as usual:
git checkout -b topic
../wpt lint
as described above.If you spot an issue with a test and are not comfortable providing a pull request per above to fix it, please file a new issue. Thank you!
