Bug 24810 – Trying to get the Windows BuildBot into the Green

• Status: RESOLVED
• Resolution: FIXED
• Component: Tools / Tests

[Brian Weinstein]

The windows build bot hasn't been green in a while, so I am making the first push to get it back into the green.

I am starting the process by adding all the current failing tests in build.webkit.org (as of r41576) to the Windows skip list. I will be filing bugs for the failing tests individually, and this will also get the consistently failing ones out of the way to accurately identify regressions and see if removing these tests causes others to fail.

Fixed formatting, no tabs, and newline at the end of the Skip list

Once I have created individual bugs for all of the failed windows tests, I will upload a new version of the skipped list which ties in each new entry of the skip list to the bug that it belongs to

IE:

#http://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug?...   (bug report of css1... failure)
css1/text_properties/text_transform.html

Patch of Windows Skip List

r=me as-is

I think some improvements could be made, though:

* There should be a space after the leading "#" on the comment lines, to match other lines in this file
* It would be good to put a comment at the end of this new section, too, so that people don't just add to the bottom of the file and mistakenly put the new failures in the r41975 section.

This patch updates the skip list to try and make bot green as of r41995, where some Windows libraries were changed.

The bot seems rather green.  Why is this still open? http://build.webkit.org/waterfall

Clearing flag to remove this from the commit queue.

No reason it shouldn't still be open, I can close it now, however, now the issue is that there are probably some tests on the skip list that don't need to be there, should another bug be created for that?
