Description Kenneth Russell 2013-03-18 14:45:35 PDT
Layout test http/tests/xmlhttprequest/send-array-buffer.html is flaky on all platforms because occasionally the trailing newline is missing from the test's output. See:

http://test-results.appspot.com/dashboards/flakiness_dashboard.html#group=%40ToT%20-%20chromium.org&showAllRuns=true&showExpectations=true&tests=http%2Ftests%2Fxmlhttprequest%2Fsend-array-buffer.html

This is strange. Any guesses about why this might be happening?

Marking the test as flaky for now.

Suppressed flakiness in http://trac.webkit.org/changeset/146134> .

I know James was seeing something similar last week while gardening. I don't believe he got a chance to dig into it deeper.

It would be interesting to know if this was reproducible locally.

Yeah, the whitespace collapsing logic is flaky (and more flaky with the threaded HTML parser it seems).

Elliot and I made some headway into understanding this whitespace flake last Weds.  We just need another afternoon in the same place (and/or I need a little time to hack).
