  • Unskip tests which are actually now passing.
  • Delete skipped tests which use removed features.
  • Mark passing, but slow or unreliable tests, as either slow or random.

Adds support for "slow-if" when running jstests on the shell, browser jstests
already support "slow-if" through reftest suite, see layout/tools/reftest/README.txt.

Depends on D24390

Is there anything the test harness should be doing to prevent any of these categories of error from reappearing in the future? (For example, maybe we should run failing test262 tests, expecting failures?)

Do you think it's worth adding a section to js/src/tests/README.txt explaining what you did here, in case anyone ever wants to do another pass? (Probably not, but it's not totally clear from the patches what you did and what you learned doing it.)

Yes, we could change jstests.list to use fail instead of skip for known test262 failures, so that whenever a test starts to succeed, we get a notification.

This was just running jstests with the --run-only-skipped flag and then manually inspecting the test files.
