Bug 96846 – Tests failing on WK2 bots after giving fixed positioning its own stacking context

• Component: Layout and Rendering
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Beth Dakin]

Tests are failing on the WK2 bots after this change:

https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=96688
http://trac.webkit.org/changeset/128652

They are failing because I checked in updated results that expect fixed positioning to create a stacking context. However, WebKitTestRunner does not enable ScrollingCoordinator, so the code that I added to enable stacking contexts for fixedPos is never actually running.

Thank you! I fixed the typos and style problem:

[Tim Horton]

Beth, is it possible this broke the functionality of http://trac.webkit.org/changeset/128652?

I see layers for position: fixed stuff on Google+ between 128652 and this patch, but not afterwards...

[Alexey Proskuryakov]

This appears to have made other tests fail, bug 96945.

Unlike what Tim is seeing, there are extra layers on the tests.
