           Summary: Current error reporting method used by check-layout.js
                    should not affect subsequent sub-tests using checking
                    data-offset-y.
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: Unspecified
        OS/Version: Unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Tools / Tests
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: pravind.2k4 at gmail.com


Description:
Consider a testcase which contains a set of sub-tests all checking if the element has correct data-offset-y(offsetTop).

When one of the sub-tests fails, the failure msg is appended to the elements container(in our case, its the sub-test). 
This extra content changes the offsetTop of other subsequent sub-tests and all sub-tests following the failing test case also fail.

This becomes confusing/time consuming when either creating a test-case or debugging test failure.
