[webkit-dev] Another WPT bite

Hi all,

Discussing with some WebKittens, testharness.js is more and more used in
WebKit.
Is it time to make testharness.js the recommended way of writing
LayoutTests?

To continue moving forward, some of us are proposing to serve all tests in
LayoutTests/wpt through the WPT server [1].
This would serve some purposes like increasing the use of WPT goodies:
file-specific headers, templated tests (*.any.js), IDLParser, server-side
scripts...
It could also ease test migration from WebKit to W3C WPT.

Some rules can guide whether adding tests to LayoutTests/wpt or
LayoutTests/imported/w3c/web-platform-tests:
- WebKit specific tests (crash tests, tests using internals...) in
LayoutTests/wpt
- Spec conformance/interoperability tests in
LayoutTests/imported/w3c/web-platform-tests
