           Summary: DumpRenderTree should refuse to start when it can't
                    contact the window server
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.5
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Tools / Tests
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: evan at chromium.org


I mostly hack on WebKit from a Linux box; when it's time to make the final
patch I push it over to a Mac box to run the layout tests.  These tests fail
because you need to VNC into the Mac box for layout tests.  However, the
failure mode is very confusing -- the tests just crash.

We should make DumpRenderTree check on whatever thing it needs to not crash and
then have run-webkit-tests check this and abort if it's not set up right.
