            Bug ID: 174220
           Summary: [GTK][WPE] kill-old-process should kill more webkit
                    related process
           Product: WebKit
           Version: WebKit Nightly Build
          Hardware: Unspecified
                OS: Unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Tools / Tests
          Assignee: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org

kill-old-processes is executed on the bots before each new test run to kill leftover process from the previous run.
This helps to avoid that process that have become unresponsive to interfere with the next run of the bot (like leftover process consuming CPU or RAM)

The list of process to kill on Linux ports misses several process like jsc, and WebKitWebProcess, WebKitDatabaseProcess, etc...

I started to build a list of possible process, but then I realized there are much more than i imagined: for example, when for the gtk api tests there are dozens of different Test*API different process names. The names of some process also change between ports (GTK+ and WPE)

So it looks like a good idea to dynamically generate the possible names of all webkit-related process by looking for the binary names on the bin build directory and add that names to the list of process to kill
