1700743 - WPT Failures in flex-grow-computed.html and flex-shrink-computed.html

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Core :: Layout: Flexbox, task)

Description

[Daniel Holbert [:dholbert]]

WPT tests flex-grow-computed.html and flex-shrink-computed.html fail in Firefox (and in Safari):
https://wpt.fyi/results/css/css-flexbox/parsing/flex-grow-computed.html?label=master&label=experimental&aligned

https://wpt.fyi/results/css/css-flexbox/parsing/flex-shrink-computed.html?label=master&label=experimental&aligned

It looks like the tests are hardcoded to expect scientific notation for some values that they read back, and we just return the regular decimal value instead. e.g.:

assert_equals: expected "2.34e+06" but got "2340000"

This seems likely to be just a buggy/unjustified expectation that's hardcoded into the test, in which case the test needs fixing.

FWIW, this test is included in the compat2021 test set at

Good news: the tests were fixed upstream to allow decimal values like 2340000, in at https://github.com/web-platform-tests/wpt/commit/935bbb95a6cc75aa25fb9c2ae9c63e457dc23453

We pass the amended tests.
