+# Web Platform Tests |
+ |
+The Web Platform Tests project provides a large number of conformance tests for |
+different aspects of the Web Platform. Currently the tests are hosted on GitHub. |
+There are two main repositories, one for the CSS Working Group (aka csswg-test), |
+and one for pretty much everything else (aka web-platform-tests). |
+ |
+There is a plan to merge csswg-test into web-platform-tests, so later, there |
+will be only one repository. |
+ |
+[TOC] |
+ |
+## Import |
+ |
+Chromium has mirrors |
+([web-platform-tests](https://chromium.googlesource.com/external/w3c/web-platform-tests/), |
+[csswg-test](https://chromium.googlesource.com/external/w3c/csswg-test/)) of the |
+GitHub repos, and periodically imports a subset of the tests so that they are |
+run as part of the regular Blink layout test testing process. |
+ |
+The goal of this process are to be able to run the Web Platform Tests unmodified |
+locally just as easily as we can run the Blink tests, and ensure that we are |
+tracking tip-of-tree in the Web Platform Tests repository as closely as |
+possible, and running as many of the tests as possible. |
+ |
+### Automatic import process |
+ |
+There is an automatic process for updating the Chromium copy of the Web Platform |
+Tests. The import is done by the builder [w3c-test-autoroller |
+builder](https://build.chromium.org/p/chromium.infra.cron/builders/w3c-test-autoroller). |
+ |
+The easiest way to check the status of recent imports is to look at: |
+ |
+- Recent logs on Buildbot for [w3c-test-autoroller |
+ builder](https://build.chromium.org/p/chromium.infra.cron/builders/w3c-test-autoroller) |
+- Recent CLs created by |
+ [blink-w3c-test-autoroller@chromium.org](https://codereview.chromium.org/search?owner=blink-w3c-test-autoroller%40chromium.org). |
+ |
+### Skipped tests |
+ |
+We control which tests are imported via a file called |
+[W3CImportExpectations](../../third_party/WebKit/LayoutTests/W3CImportExpectations), |
+which has a list of directories to skip while importing. |
+ |
+In addition to the directories and tests explicitly skipped there, tests may |
+also be skipped for a couple other reasons, e.g. if the file path is too long |
+for Windows. To check what files are skipped in import, check the recent logs |
+for [w3c-test-autoroller |
+builder](https://build.chromium.org/p/chromium.infra.cron/builders/w3c-test-autoroller). |
+ |
+### Manual import |
+ |
+To pull the latest versions of the tests that are currently being imported, you |
+can also directly invoke the |
+[wpt-import](../../third_party/WebKit/Tools/Scripts/wpt-import) script. |
+ |
+That script will pull the latest version of the tests from our mirrors of the |
+upstream repositories. If any new versions of tests are found, they will be |
+committed locally to your local repository. You may then upload the changes. |
+ |
+If you wish to add more tests (by un-skipping some of the directories currently |
+skipped in `W3CImportExpectations`), you can modify that file locally and commit |
+it, and on the next auto-import, the new tests should be imported. If you want |
+to import immediately, you can also run `wpt-import --allow-local-commits`. |
+ |
+## Contributing tests back to the Web Platform Tests project. |
+ |
+If you need to make changes to Web Platform Tests, just commit your changes |
+directly to |
+[LayoutTests/external/wpt](../../third_party/WebKit/LayoutTests/external/wpt) |
+and the changes will be automatically upstreamed within 24 hours. |
+ |
+Note: if you're adding a new test in `external/wpt`, you'll need to re-generate |
+MANIFEST.json manually until [CL 2644783003](https://crrev.com/2644783003) is |
+landed. The command to do so is: |
+ |
+```bash |
+Tools/Scripts/webkitpy/thirdparty/wpt/wpt/manifest --work \ |
+ --tests-root=LayoutTests/external/wpt |
+``` |
+ |
+### Will the exported commits be linked to my GitHub profile? |
+ |
+The email you commit with in Chromium will be the author of the commit on |
+GitHub. You can [add it as a secondary address on your GitHub |
+account](https://help.github.com/articles/adding-an-email-address-to-your-github-account/) |
+to link your exported commits to your GitHub profile. |
+ |
+### What if there are conflicts? |
+ |
+This cannot be avoided entirely as the two repositories are independent, but |
+should be rare with frequent imports and exports. When it does happen, manual |
+intervention will be needed and in non-trivial cases you may be asked to help |
+resolve the conflict. |
+ |
+### Direct pull requests |
+ |
+It's still possible to make direct pull requests to web-platform-tests. The |
+processes for getting new tests committed the W3C repos are at |
+[http://testthewebforward.org/docs/]. Some specifics are at |
