Bug ID: 188261
Summary: run-api-tests: It is not very meaningful to prepend
the binary name to tests
Product: WebKit
Version: WebKit Local Build
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: Normal
Priority: P2
Component: Tools / Tests
Assignee: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
Reporter: dbates at webkit.org

Following <https://trac.webkit.org/changeset/230998> (bug #181043), run-api-tests now prepends the binary name of the test executable that contains the test when it emits the name of the test. Knowing the binary name that contains a test does not seem very meaningful because it is an implementation detail of how we chose to bundle and run tests (by splitting tests across more than one binary). As far as I can tell, any advantage claimed by prepending the binary name to the test to avoid collisions seem superfluous. It would be good to know if people ever ran into such collisions. Otherwise, it seems sufficient to revert to our behavior before <https://trac.webkit.org/changeset/230998> and rely on Google unit test's default namespace behavior where each test is identified by its test suite and test name.
This problem may be easier to see visually. The following is the output of a passing test and failing test run with run-api-test before and after r230998.
== Passing test ==

As you can see from the above output we did not prepend the binary name (TestWTF) to the test name before r230998.
