Build ID: 20130405040205

Steps to reproduce:

went to http://css4-selectors.com/browser-selector-test/ and tested the support for selectors.


Actual results:

it said 100% on css1, 100% on css3, 30% on css4, and 92% on css2.


Expected results:

said 100% on css1, css2, and css3.
That page is wrongly referencing :dir as a css2 psudo selector, but it was removed from the css2 spec cause no browser implemented it. It is currently part of the css4 draft[0], and is implemented in firefox with a prefix (-moz-dir)[1].

This could prob be a future bug for unprefixing this property though.

Contacted them to fix their test so it should correctly give 100% for 1,2,3.

  RESOLVED: unprefix :dir and :lang
  https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-style/2015Jan/0005.html
Depends on: 562169
We do need to make sure we match the spec, but the spec is simple enough that I think this is mostly a matter of testing edge-cases of dir attribute support than anything else.  There are some web platform tests for this stuff in https://github.com/w3c/web-platform-tests/blob/master/html/semantics/selectors/pseudo-classes/dir.html and https://github.com/w3c/web-platform-tests/blob/master/html/semantics/selectors/pseudo-classes/dir01.html but they probably need significant beefing up to test dynamic changes, to test dir="auto" (and dynamic changes to it), etc.  I wonder whether we can just convert our existing :dir tests to web platforms tests and/or web platform reftests...

Part 1 - unprefix :dir

It's better to leave :-moz-dir() for a short transition period rather than removing it at exactly the same time as adding :dir.

Thus:

>diff --git a/layout/style/nsCSSParser.cpp b/layout/style/nsCSSParser.cpp

>   if (aType == CSSPseudoClassType::mozLocaleDir ||
>       aType == CSSPseudoClassType::dir) {

add "||
aType == CSSPseudoClassType::mozDir" here.


>diff --git a/layout/style/nsCSSPseudoClassList.h b/layout/style/nsCSSPseudoClassList.h
>-CSS_STATE_DEPENDENT_PSEUDO_CLASS(dir, ":-moz-dir", 0, "",
>+CSS_STATE_DEPENDENT_PSEUDO_CLASS(dir, ":dir", 0, "",
>                                  NS_EVENT_STATE_LTR | NS_EVENT_STATE_RTL)


And add a:
CSS_STATE_DEPENDENT_PSEUDO_CLASS(mozDir, ":-moz-dir", 0, "",
                                 NS_EVENT_STATE_LTR | NS_EVENT_STATE_RTL)
here right below the dir entry.

And then please file a followup bug on removing :-moz-dir later.

Part 5 - add more wpt test cases

>diff --git a/testing/web-platform/tests/html/semantics/selectors/pseudo-classes/dir-style-01-ref.html b/testing/web-platform/tests/html/semantics/selectors/pseudo-classes/dir-style-01-ref.html

These really seem like tests of a CSS feature much more than an HTML one.

I think that either:
 * they should go in a css/selectors/ directory of some sort (which jgraham should approe), or
 * they should go in layout/reftests/w3c-css/submitted/selectors4/ (which you'd need to create, and add to its parent directory's reftest.list)

>+    <meta name="assert" content="The color of texts should match the reference html.">

This (repeated between the tests) should say what assertion of the spec is being tested, not how to use the test.

>+    <script type="text/javascript">
>+      function switchDir()
>+      {
>+        divs = document.getElementsByTagName("div");

This function should probably start with something that flushes layout, e.g.,  reading divs[0].offsetWidth, so that you actually test dynamic change.

Same for the other places with similar patterns.

patch updated according to your suggestion. It makes sense to keep a short transition.

it looks more like a CSS feature test so I've put them into w3c-css test suites as your suggested path.

addressed in new patch part 4 and rename patch title to "add w3c-css test cases."
Do we ever actually upstream CSS tests in the submitted directory?

Part 4 - add w3c-css test cases

>+    <meta name="assert" content="Text color of selected elements via :dir() should be styled correctly.">

This still isn't very useful.

I think the assert should be one of two things.  It should either be:

 (1) a quote from the spec that is the sentence you're testing, or

 (2) a sentence that is *different* for each test, and explains what
 the test is testing and how it's different from the other tests.

I think (2) is probably more useful.

(If I'd actually felt the need to review the tests closely, I'd have
asked you for (2) before I reviewed them.)

Thanks for your feedback, it makes sense and need to be followed to better elaborate each test. I think it looks better now.
Looks like it's good to go now.

When re-reviewing, I missed that you didn't add to (or really, just uncomment a line in) the parent directory's reftest.list.  Therefore these tests aren't being run.
