Testing in Chromium

Running web tests on Linux

  1. Build blink_tests (see Linux-specific build instructions)
  2. Checkout the web tests
    • If you have an entry in your .gclient file that includes “web_tests”, you may need to comment it out and sync.
    • You can run a subset of the tests by passing in a path relative to src/third_party/blink/web_tests/. For example, third_party/blink/tools/run_web_tests.py fast will only run the tests under src/third_party/blink/web_tests/fast/.
  3. When the tests finish, any unexpected results should be displayed.

See Web Tests for full documentation about set up and available options.

Pixel Tests

The pixel test results were generated on Ubuntu 10.4 (Lucid). If you're running a newer version of Ubuntu, you will get some pixel test failures due to changes in freetype or fonts. In this case, you can create a Lucid 64 chroot using build/install-chroot.sh to compile and run tests.

Fonts

  1. Make sure you have all the dependencies installed by running
build/install-build-deps.sh
  1. Double check that
ls third_party/test_fonts/test_fonts/

is not empty and lists the fonts downloaded through the test_fonts hook in the top level DEPS file.

Plugins

If fast/dom/object-plugin-hides-properties.html and plugins/embed-attributes-style.html are failing, try uninstalling totem-mozilla from your system:

sudo apt-get remove totem-mozilla

Configuration tips

  • Use an optimized content_shell when rebaselining or running a lot of tests. (bug 8475 is about how the debug output differs from the optimized output.)

    ninja -C out/Release content_shell

  • Make sure you have wdiff installed: sudo apt-get install wdiff to get prettier diff output.

  • Some pixel tests may fail due to processor-specific rounding errors. Build using a chroot jail with Lucid 64-bit user space to be sure that your system matches the checked in baselines. You can use build/install-chroot.sh to set up a Lucid 64 chroot. Learn more about using a linux chroot.

Getting a web test into a debugger

There are two ways:

  1. Run content_shell directly rather than using run_web_tests.py. You will need to pass some options:
    • --no-timeout to give you plenty of time to debug
    • the fully qualified path of the web test (rather than relative to blink/web_tests).
  2. Or, run as normal but with the --additional-drt-flag=--renderer-startup-dialog --additional-drt-flag=--no-timeout --time-out-ms=86400000 flags. The first one makes content_shell bring up a dialog before running, which then would let you attach to the process via gdb -p PID_OF_DUMPRENDERTREE. The others help avoid the test shell and DumpRenderTree timeouts during the debug session.

Using an embedded X server

If you try to use your computer while the tests are running, you may get annoyed as windows are opened and closed automatically. To get around this, you can create a separate X server for running the tests.

  1. Install Xephyr (sudo apt-get install xserver-xephyr)
  2. Start Xephyr as display 4: Xephyr :4 -screen 1024x768x24
  3. Run the web tests in the Xephyr: DISPLAY=:4 run_web_tests.py

Xephyr supports debugging repainting. See the Xephyr README for details. In brief:

  1. XEPHYR_PAUSE=$((500*1000)) Xephyr ...etc... # 500 ms repaint flash
  2. kill -USR1 $(pidof Xephyr)

If you don't want to see anything at all, you can use Xvfb (should already be installed).

  1. Start Xvfb as display 4: Xvfb :4 -screen 0 1024x768x24
  2. Run the web tests in the Xvfb: DISPLAY=:4 run_web_tests.py

Tiling Window managers

The web tests want to run with the window at a particular size down to the pixel level. This means if your window manager resizes the window it'll cause test failures. This is another good reason to use an embedded X server.

xmonad

In your .xmonad/xmonad.hs, change your config to include a manageHook along these lines:

test_shell_manage = className =? "Test_shell" --> doFloat
main = xmonad $
  defaultConfig
    { manageHook = test_shell_manage <+> manageHook defaultConfig
    ...
