           Summary: IndexedDB: Remove unnecessary tests from
                    storage/indexeddb/key-type-array.html
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)

        OS/Version: Unspecified
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2

The tests in storage/indexeddb/key-type-array.html which verify that JSON.stringify() throws an exception for cyclic objects are unnecessary and differ between JSC and V8.

The error message regarding serializing cyclic structures in JSC is "JSON.stringify cannot serialize cyclic structures." (Source/JavaScriptCore/runtime/JSONObject.cpp line 412) while the comparable error message in V8 is "Converting circular structure to JSON" (v8/src/messages.js line 116).

The error messages relating to serializing cyclic structures are rather incidental to the functionality being tested:

shouldThrow("JSON.stringify(cyclic_array)");

These tests should be removed.
