Note Alexey's URL example points to a specific revision of a specific test.

A frustration that has often come up while I've been working on leading-edge features in WebKit is that the w3c-test.org <http://w3c-test.org/> tests are constantly updated and therefore are a moving target.
One cannot use the same test repeatedly over some length of time and expect it to remain consistent.
