PR 12187 applied with additional changes from upstream: e45b651d2b0a4d0b8f239723b8bb9836ad18d9a5, 6146d600fd84c043ee3ce70e59f9abe1b8252d99

When we've got this support, list-style-021.xht is one test that really needs this annotation. Maybe it can be annotated as part of this bug, even, to serve as a sanity-check that the fuzzy functionality is working?

(I've just marked it as disabled in bug 1383451, but it really wants a fuzzy(8,1) annotation, for 1px differing by up to 8 in every color channel, with rgb(255,255,255) != rgb(247,247,247))

James, do you know what is blocking this from landing?

Hi, James,
Do we have any progress on this bug? Because there are lots of WebVTT wpt tests need this fuzzy feature.
Thank you!

Flags: needinfo?(james)

Is there a more recent try run to look at then the link in comment 5? I'm not sure where the comment 8 link comes from.

There isn't a more recent try run, but I expect this to land this week.

Sorry to poke on this bug again, just want to know is there any good progress we got for landing this one?
Thank you!

Yes, you can.

Platform selection via the is/expression syntax is a generic feature not tied to any specific field.

For general docs on the fuzziness specification see https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/source/testing/web-platform/tests/infrastructure/metadata/infrastructure/reftest/reftest_fuzzy.html.ini#2 for an example or the documentation [1], [2].

Bit generally you should be able to do something like:

fuzzy:
if os == "linux": 10;1-20
if os == "mac": 5;10

or with whatever values are appropriate.

No doubt the docs could be improved, so let me know what problems you run into.

I think it would be a good idea to post a PSA about this feature in dev.platform.

Hi, James,
I've added the fuzzy keyword on some wpts, but it seems not work at all [1]. Is there any thing I miss?
Thank you.

One guess: it looks like in your fuzzy annotations, you're repeating the test name, like here in your try commit:

 --- /dev/null
 +++ b/testing/web-platform/meta/webvtt/rendering/cues-with-video/processing-model/align_center.html.ini
 @@ -0,0 +1,2 @@
 +[align_center.html]
 +  fuzzy: align_center.html:maxDifference=2;totalPixels=5000
           ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^----(I think this is the problem)

I think you're supposed to use the reference name in the fuzzy annotation. (The test name is already present in the brackets, so it'd be redundant to list it again.)

I think (?) the idea is that tests can have multiple references (though they don't often), so to handle that correctly, you have to clarify which reference you're referring to in the fuzzy annotation. Or something like that. You don't have to clarify which testcase you're referring to, because the testcase has already been mentioned.

(Sorry I often miss comments on these bugs because for [reasons] I get bugmail for all PRs we're syncing and so it tends to get filtered away).

Yeah, so if you just don't put any filename then the annotation should get applied to all comparisons in that test. In the typical case that's fine because there's only one comparison. However wpt reftests are complex because tests can have multiple allowed renderings and you can build up chains of references for a single test. So for those complex cases it can be necessary to specify which part of the chain the fuzziness applies to. In that case, if the ref is only used once or the fuzziness applies every time it's used, you can simply name the ref (as a relative path from the test) using the <key>:<fuzzy> syntax you used above. In the most complex case where you want to identify a specific comparison you can use the full <lhs><reftype><rhs>:<fuzzy> form, where <lhs> and <rhs> are the relative paths from the initial test to the files being compared and <reftype> is either == or !=.

The tl;dr summary of all of that is that for your case you probably just want to write maxDifference=2;totalPixels=5000, but dholbert is also correct that for more precision you need to specify the ref not the test.

There is a proposal to reform the way that complex reftests work in wpt which might hekp avoid some of this complexity; see [1] if you would like to give feedback on that.

I also noticed that there was a bug in the code comment explaining this; apologies if that caused the confusion.
