What is this "cross-run tracking"? Is it about saving results for a retry?

Without having thought about the code much, I wonder if the patch makes it so that orginal results will be deleted when using --retry (which is the default).

Or when running iPad tests after the main suite.

I'm not really sure what this was originally referring to, but I can't see it being anything except undesirable when passing --clobber-old-results.

_clobber_old_results is run before all the rounds, so this doesn't effect results on iOS where we have separate iPhone/iPad rounds.

Another approach we could take its only deleting crashlogs, python stack traces and spindumps instead of the entire directory. The problem with that approach is that I still can't think of a reason why keeping any result data between tests would ever be useful in infrastructure, especially since sometimes we build out of order.

Yes, I also don't remember any files or run-webkit-tests modes where we wanted to keep any files in the results directory between invocations.

Please keep the period at the end of the sentence.

I guess we have our answer. We are using the previous test results to detect when certain tests (compositing, in particular) change their output. This seems like a very unstable way of doing things.

Probably would have helped to actually delete the right thing.

The previous patch was deleting WebKit/LayoutTests instead of WebKit/build/*/layout-test-results.

This seems to have broken the layout-tests completely.

Re-opened since this is blocked by bug 205981

Next time, please wait for EWS.

Sorry about that....we apparently clobber results after starting the HTTP server.

I think that you can just as well say "deleting directory" now, as it's no longer about just results.
