Invalidate layout from changed spanner up to containing block.

We need to mark all ancestors between the spanner and its containing
block for layout, because they may contain references to the spanner.
Just like for out-of-flow positioned elements, there may be references
to column spanners from such ancestors. More precisely, there may be a
descendant break token for the spanner. So if the spanner is removed,
they will point to a dead object. Make sure to mark the ancestors for
layout, so that we never hit the cache.

It's very hard to hit the cache in front of a spanner, since we force
column balancing, which very easily makes us miss the cache (and nuke
it). So it was tricky to reproduce. However, it was possible if we had a
multicol on a fragmentable table caption (or somewhere inside it),
because of a cache miss while side-effects were disabled (which
prevented the missed entry from being nuked). Grid layout also sometimes
disables side-effects, so it might have been possible there as well.

The table layout code initially lays out captions with side-effects
disabled, so a stale entry in LayoutBox is kept even if the cache is
missed, and then hit when laying out for "real" afterwards (via
NGTableLayoutAlgorithm::GenerateFragment()). The entry (fragment) would
have an outgoing break token tree containing a dead spanner.

We always need a balancing pass in front of a spanner. If the parent of
a spanner used to fragment, we'll typically miss the cache and nuke it
when performing layout after a DOM / style change. However, with
side-effects disabled, this doesn't happen. We just miss the cache, but
keep the old result lying around (which should be okay to do). When we
get to actual layout with a known fragmentainer block-size, there's
nothing that prevents us from hitting the cache.

There's a TODO in ComputeCaptionFragments() suggesting that we remove
the disable-side-effects scope, if we instead stow away enough caption
info in a break token. That's a good idea, solving this bug that way
would just hide it. There may be other ways of reproducing it, and I
think what the table code does is valid.

The test case needs to trigger a break in a parallel flow before a
spanner, since that's probably the only way of creating a break token
for the spanner. This happens in the IsColumnSpanAll() when laying out
children in NGBlockLayoutAlgorithm::Layout().

The web-platform-tests Project

Taskcluster CI Status documentation manifest Python 3

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:

  • github.com/web-platform-tests/wpt: the canonical location of the project's source code revision history and the discussion forum for changes to the code
  • web-platform-tests.org: the documentation website; details how to set up the project, how to write tests, how to give and receive peer review, how to serve as an administrator, and more
  • wpt.live: a public deployment of the test suite, allowing anyone to run the tests by visiting from an Internet-enabled browser of their choice
  • wpt.fyi: an archive of test results collected from an array of web browsers on a regular basis
  • Real-time chat room: the wpt:matrix.org matrix channel; includes participants located around the world, but busiest during the European working day.
  • Mailing list: a public and low-traffic discussion list
  • RFCs: a repo for requesting comments on substantial changes that would impact other stakeholders or users; people who work on WPT infra are encouraged to watch the repo.

If you'd like clarification about anything, don't hesitate to ask in the chat room or on the mailing list.

Setting Up the Repo

Clone or otherwise get https://github.com/web-platform-tests/wpt.

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).

Running the Tests

See the documentation website and in particular the system setup for running tests locally.

Command Line Tools

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 server
  • wpt run - For running tests in a browser
  • wpt lint - For running the lint against all tests
  • wpt manifest - For updating or generating a MANIFEST.json test manifest
  • wpt install - For installing the latest release of a browser or webdriver server on the local machine.
  • wpt serve-wave - For starting the wpt http server and the WAVE test runner. For more details on how to use the WAVE test runner see the documentation.

Windows Notes

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.

Publication

The master branch is automatically synced to wpt.live and w3c-test.org.

Contributing

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:

  • Fork this repository (and make sure you're still relatively in sync with it if you forked a while ago).
  • Create a branch for your changes: git checkout -b topic.
  • Make your changes.
  • Run ./wpt lint as described above.
  • Commit locally and push that to your repo.
  • Create a pull request based on the above.

Issues with web-platform-tests

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!
