Because expectations regarding error "phase" are now expressed via test
meta-data, the test runner may now enforce this requirement on negative
tests.
Remove the "NotEarlyError" from the project source. This reduces the
amount of domain knowledge required to author tests and lessens the
potential for inconsistencies between tests.
Ensure that NaN values are canonicalized consistently by all invocations
of SetValueInBuffer. Also ensure that `%TypedArray%.prototype.set` and
`%TypedArray%.prototype.slice` preserve the bit-level encoding of the
source data.
Use a set of experimentally-derived expressions known to produce NaN
values with distinct bit patterns in various platforms.
Modify the regular expression for native functions' toString value to
satisfy all test cases. Correct the test file's reference to the harness
file. Re-format the test file's assertions to aid debugging in the event
of failure.
The millisecond representation of a given Date instance is dependent on
the local system's time zone settings. In order to pass consistently
across contexts, tests for this value must take the system configuration
into account.
Introduce a test harness utility function to encapsulate these concerns.
Re-use this function across all test files that assert the exact
millisecond representation of Date instances.
The harness file `Test262Error.js` has not contained executable code since it
was introduced in this project [1]. The definition of the `Test262Error`
function has consistently been located in the `sta.js` harness file which test
runners are expected to inject into the test environment.
Remove the file and all references to it.

ECMAScript 2015 introduced tail call optimization for function calls
occuring in a number of positions in the grammar. Assert expected
behavior by triggering a large (but configurable) number of recursive
function calls in these positions. Compliant runtimes will execute such
programs without error; non-compliant runtimes are expected to fail
these tests by throwing an error or crashing when system resources are
exhausted.
Some JavaScript source files are only relevant in the context of the
Test262 website. They should not be explicitly included by individual
tests, so their presence in the `harness/` directory alongside "include"
files is misleading.
Move the scripts to a location within the `website/` directory to
better-reflect their intended use. Update the relevant HTML templates
with the new locations.
Although test files once expressed dependencies on external files using
a global `$INCLUDE` function, that pattern was removed in favor of
declarative meta-data [1].
Remove the associated logic from the Python runner and the browser.
[1] See commit d4354d14d534abaf2bcb1f82b3daae0702f3b8ee.
The `fnExists` function defines a generic way to determine if any number
of values are function instances. Because it is only used by a single
test, the additional complexity required by the generalized code (and
the organizational drawbacks to maintaining another "include" file) are
not justified. Remove the file and update the test to assert the
function's existence directly.
The `environment.js` file has been empty since its initial introduction
to this project [1]. It has no effect on any of the contexts in which it
is currently referenced, so it may be safely removed.

Unlike the console runner, the browser runner does not modify the
strictness of tests prior to running them. Regardless of a given test's
metadata, it runs every test exactly once, and it never enables strict
mode. This means that tests intended to function in strict mode must
declare the "use strict"; directive prologue in addition to the
`onlyStrict` flag.
For any test that specifies the `onlyStrict` metadata flag, transform
the source code by injecting a "use strict" directive prologue prior to
running the test.
Since the Python runner was updated to include `assert.js` in all tests
unconditionally, a number of tests have been written that implicitly
rely on its presence. The browser runner does not currently provide this
file's contents to these tests, so they fail unconditionally.
Update the browser runner to inject that file's contents into every test
context.
Note: the existing approach to file retrieval (namely loading via
synchronous XHR requests) is inefficient and deprecated in some
browsers. It is honored here for the sake of consistency and to minimize
the changeset necessary to fix the browser runner.
The `$PRINT` helper function has no effect on test behavior. The
following tests use it to report assertion outcomes (and as a result
will fail silently):
- test/language/function-code/S10.2.1_A4_T2.js
- test/language/function-code/S10.2.1_A5.1_T1.js
- test/language/function-code/S10.2.1_A5.1_T2.js
- test/language/function-code/S10.2.1_A5.2_T1.js
Remove the function definition and all references within tests. Update
tests that use it as an error reporting mechanism to instead use an
appropriate `assert` helper function.
This function is equivalent to `$ERROR` (which is automatically included
in test environments). Remove the harness file that defines the
function, remove references to the file from test `includes` lists, and
update scripts to instead invoke the `$ERROR` function.
- Remove no longer needed noStrict flags.
- Change tests to use propertyHelper.js for strict mode compatibility.
- Add tests for return value of `delete` operator, e.g. `delete Array.prototype === false`.
- Add non-writable tests for global NaN property.
- Split some tests to run in strict mode.
- Change tests with global `var length` declaration to use a different variable name for browser environments.
- Merge duplicated tests symbol-data-property-configurable-non-strict and symbol-data-property-configurable-strict.
- Merge duplicated tests symbol-data-property-writable-non-strict and symbol-data-property-writable-strict.
- (And a small change in propertyHelper to reduce code duplication in function call.)
The `testBuiltInObject` function verifies the presence of the specified
properties for *all* object types (not just function objects). Update
the error messages to reflect this.
