When using the rebaseline-cl tool, I hit a case where there were a number of tests that failed both before and after my change. Rebaseline-cl added new baselines for these cases, which seems to be undesirable (adds noise to the submit, makes it harder to understand what my change actually impacts).
My patch is here:
https://codereview.chromium.org/2514263002/#ps180001
The bot in question is mac10.11_retina_blink_rel - results here:
https://build.chromium.org/p/tryserver.blink/builders/mac10.11_retina_blink_rel/builds/1329
Note that the retry summary reports:
webkit_tests (retry summary) webkit_tests (retry summary)
failures:
fast/hidpi/image-set-border-image-button.html
fast/borders/border-image-scale-transform.html
ignored:
fast/forms/radio/radio-appearance-basic.html
fast/forms/input-appearance-height.html
fast/forms/checkbox/checkbox-appearance-basic.html
fast/text/whitespace/normal-after-nowrap-breaking.html
fast/forms/input-value.html
fast/forms/001.html
From this, I would only have expected two new baselines added to my CL for the failures. Instead the script added new baselines for the ignored values as well.
To run the bots and to pull the new baselines, I just ran:
./third_party/WebKit/Tools/Scripts/webkit-patch rebaseline-cl
