https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=15062 --- Comment #6 from James Graham <jgraham@opera.com> 2011-12-05 22:19:41 UTC --- Using filenames as some kind of identifier worries me greatly. Not only do I think that requiring uniqueness is an undue burden, I am also concerned that it doesn't capture the full informtion required to load a test. In particular some tests will require specific query strings or fragment identifiers. Therefore the only way to correctly identify a test is by its URL and name (for javascript tests) or URL and reference URL (for reftests). We got this wrong in our internal TC management system and the impdedance mismatch between the parts that incorrectly assume tests are directly related to files on the filesystem and the parts that correctly assume tests are identified by the given, URL-containing, tuples is a frequent source of problems. -- Configure bugmail: https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
