Sorry for the lack of the context. In blink-dev community, there was a
discussion when the test runner should take screenshots for tests that
contain @font-face. I wanted to find the answer in the spec without luck.

Short answer is that this isn't explicitly defined, either in an events

That gives very clear answer, thank you. So if we wish our tests to be
interoperable, tests should check the load event along with
document.fonts.ready.

Thank you, that was really helpful!!
