Bug 164064 – testharnessreport.js should sanitize the results before printing them

• Component: Tools / Tests
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Chris Dumez]

testharnessreport.js should sanitize the results before printing them. We currently have 3 copies of this script and only 1 does the sanitization.
Short term, let do the sanitization in all of them. Longer term, we should merge these and have a way to keep them in sync.

If it proves to be difficult to remove the testharness report.js copies, we could add checks.
We do that for testharness.js when running rwt.
In the case of test harness report.js, style checker could do it.

This comment is not the reason this matters to us. Seems like a comment written by whoever made this change in Blink and so only mentions the reason that affects them.

This comment is even more Blink-specific. I don’t even know what “rietveld” is.

Sorry about this. I went quick and dirty. I am planning to sync-up all 3 scripts so they are identical in a follow-up when I have a little bit more time. I'll clean up the comments as well.
