           Summary: Chromium: DRT should accept file path as an argument,
                    not just url
           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: dmazzoni at google.com


In the Mac port of DRT, you can give it a path to a test, for example:
  WebKitBuild/Release/DumpRenderTree LayoutTests/accessibility/textarea-line-for-index.html

In the Chromium port, this doesn't work - you have to give it a file:// url:
  out/Release/DumpRenderTree file:///home/user/.../chrome/src/third_party/WebKit/LayoutTests/accessibility/textarea-line-for-index.html

If you do try to pass a file path to the Chromium port of DRT, you get the render tree for the "file not found" page, which isn't at all obvious.

Let's just make DRT in Chromium accept a file path as an argument and automatically convert it to a file:// url.
