The following layout test is failing on mac WK1 (Debug and Release)

fast/repaint/animation-after-layer-scroll.html

I found that this test and another listed below fail together on the same test runner:
fast/repaint/animation-after-layer-scroll.html
fast/repaint/canvas-object-fit.html from https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=188910

I was able to reproduce the failures by pulling the test runner list from a failing run that contained these two tests and running it using command:

run-webkit-tests --root testbuild-235740 --test-list TEST_LIST_LOCATION --child-processes 1 -1

I am going to bisect the list down to something more manageable 

Note: fast/repaint/canvas-object-fit.html will set its own state so if it is ran in iterations it will fail every time.

[Truitt Savell]

This command can reproduce both failures:

run-webkit-tests --root testbuild-235740 fast/multicol/newmulticol/multicol-inside-multicol.html fast/repaint/animation-after-layer-scroll.html fast/repaint/canvas-object-fit.html --child-processes 1 -1

fast/multicol/newmulticol/multicol-inside-multicol.html is casting a state to be set that causes both of these tests to fail if they are in the same run.

After bisecting through revisions I believe this test became flakey with https://trac.webkit.org/changeset/234330/webkit.

running the command above on r234329 causes no failures and on 234330 it does fail.

This was fixed in r244675. The test was not in TestExpectations.
