           Summary: Fix a race in fast/history/history_reload.html
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Tools / Tests
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: pam at chromium.org


The fast/history/history_reload.html test has a potential race condition caused
by higher-resolution timers.  I don't know exactly what threshold it takes to
expose the problem, but it's worth removing anyway.

Each time the subframe loads, the onclose handler calls
layoutTestController.notifyDone via setTimeout(0). If that gets fired before
the history.go() completes, the test appears to have failed.

One solution is to always use two passes in the test, and not complete until
the second one.
