w3c/web-platform-tests: Test Suites for Web Platform specifications—including WHATWG, W3C and others
The Web Platform Tests Project is a W3C-coordinated attempt to build a cross-browser testsuite for the Web-platform stack. However, for mainly historic reasons, the CSS WG testsuite is in a separate repository, csswg-test. Writing tests in a way that allows them to be run in all browsers gives browser projects confidence that they are shipping software that is compatible with other implementations, and that later implementations will be compatible with their implementations. This in turn gives Web authors/developers confidence that they can actually rely on the Web platform to deliver on the promise of working across browsers and devices without needing extra layers of abstraction to paper over the gaps left by specification editors and implementors.
