Our specifications and our tests are out of sync. Most often, the tests are behind (eg Beacon) and sometimes, the tests are ahead (eg User Timing). This is costing us dearly in the long run imho (eg TAO, user-timing/mark/measure). I'd like to propose that the Working Group adopts a dual spec/testing process, similar to the one applied in the pointer events working group [1] and the whatwg [2]: [[ Normative spec changes are generally expected to have a corresponding pull request in web-platform-test. Outstanding test work is tracked via issues in this repository and issues generally remain open until both spec and test changes land. If one PR is approved but the other needs more work, add the 'do not merge yet' label or, in web-platform-tests, the 'status:needs-spec-decision' label. ]] wdyt?
