    As a CSS spec editor who was tasked with reviewing some totally
    uncommented layout tests, I disagree with this statement.

And here’s a recent non-CSS example: http://logs.glob.uno/?c=freenode%23whatwg&s=29+Aug+2017&e=29+Aug+2017&h=comment#c1036038


I expect wanderview is sufficiently knowledgeable, but could have benefitted from some test comments/metadata there.

Thanks,
