Description Michael Catanzaro 2016-01-29 21:30:57 PST

The following layout tests have been failing on the GTK port since they were marked as cross-platform in r188022:

  fast/ruby/ruby-expansion-cjk-2.html [ ImageOnlyFailure ]
  fast/ruby/ruby-expansion-cjk-3.html [ ImageOnlyFailure ]
  fast/ruby/ruby-expansion-cjk-4.html [ ImageOnlyFailure ]
  fast/ruby/ruby-expansion-cjk-5.html [ ImageOnlyFailure ]
  fast/ruby/ruby-expansion-cjk.html [ ImageOnlyFailure ]

Simon, your commit message says "They may have to be skipped on other platforms." Why would this be more appropriate than marking them as expected failures? I am going to mark them as failures for now.

The bot don't runs the test skipped, so it helps to reduce the total time it spends running tests.

If a given test is known to make no sense on a given platform, is best to mark them as skip rather than as failing.
