| # Writing Your Own Runner |
| |
| Most test runners have two stages: finding all tests, followed by |
| executing them (or a subset thereof). |
| |
| To find all tests in the repository, it is **strongly** recommended to |
| use the included `wpt manifest` tool: the required behaviors are more |
| complex than what are documented (especially when it comes to |
| precedence of the various possibilities and some undocumented legacy |
| ways to define test types), and hence its behavior should be |
| considered the canonical definition of how to enumerate tests and find |
| their type in the repository. |
| |
| For test execution, please read the documentation for the various test |
| types very carefully and then check your understanding on the [mailing |
| list][public-test-infra] or [matrix][matrix]. It's possible edge-case |
| behavior isn't properly documented! |
