In http://trac.webkit.org/changeset/76040 I removed some asserts that were getting triggered by calling window.open with an empty URL, but failed to add a test.

It's always sad to roll out a test case, but it seems the bug wasn't actually fixed before this test was added. :(

I changed the test case from the patch into JS Fiddle: Link - https://jsfiddle.net/sd65xt31/show It does not trigger any crash in Safari 15.6 on macOS 12.5 and it just triggers "Pop-up Blocker" and then after it shows (after allowing): ___ Test that calling window.open(""); does not trigger any assertions or cause any crashes. PASS: Calling window.open() with an empty URL did not trigger any assertions or cause any crashes. ___ It is same across all other browsers (Chrome Canary 106 and Firefox Nightly 104). I think if we don't need to land this test case, since it works across all browsers - we can close this as "RESOLVED CONFIGURATION CHANGED". Thanks!

This is about adding debug asserts. At this point, I don't think keeping this 11 year old bug is the way to address this. If we have had a need to add an assertion in this code, we would have done it meanwhile. -> Later.
