The reason why all these imported/w3c/web-platform-tests/media-source tests should be skipped is explained in https://bugs.webkit.org/attachment.cgi?id=297003&action=diff (line 234): "Webm is required by the tests but we don't support it."

Please, skip these tests again until webm support is enabled.

Of those 54 tests there are 18 passing (even without webm support). How is that?

Also I don't think skipping tests is the best idea. If you skip tests you pretty much don't have any coverage regarding them. You will miss any revision causing them to suddenly crash or timeout. By marking them as failing or crashing you get basic test coverage for them even when they are still not working or the feature is still not 100% implemented.

This no longer crashes, but fails since we upgraded to GST 1.10.4, see bug #171726

This bug shouldn't be closed.

There are still many tests pointing here in LayoutTests/platform/gtk/TestExpectations
