updated to be closer to newer project template format.
= Overview / Problem =
web-platform-tests is a testsuite designed for cross-browser testing of web features like CSS and DOM APIs.
Creating, and running, such a testsuite is a crucial part of improving the open web. Whenever a technology has multiple implementations it's very easy to introduce accidental discrepancies that cause poor interoperability. Historically this has been a problem on the web with different browsers all having their own quirks that developers have had to learn and work around. By contributing to the web-platform-tests testsuite we can build up a repository of test cases that can be run by all browser vendors through their development cycle so such issues are caught before they make it into released builds.
= Goals & Considerations =
The aim of this project is to allow us to run the full set of web-platform-tests in Gecko and Servo, and create an easy workflow for contributing tests back upstream.
= Source and Documentation Non Goals =
The target here is Mozilla developers and release management. We run tests use a custom web server, [http://github.com/w3c/wptserve wptserve], which also has documentation on [https:every change to the browser and the feedback about passing//readthedocsfailing tests is important.org Also updated/projects/wptrunner/ readthedocs]new tests need to run upstream so expect other vendors to run these tests.
= Milestones / Future Project Goals Work =
* Improved support for upstreaming tests from gecko directly into the upstream repository.
* More sophisticated reftest matching for cases where deterministic pixel equality isn't achievable.

Because a lot of the project is developed "upstream" on GitHub, not all of the bugs are in bugzilla.mozilla.org.
