Description Lauro Moura 2020-02-12 20:47:58 PST

r256191 implemented Chrome's behavior of disallowing setting the base URL to a data or JS URL.

This is making WPT's a-element tests to fail as they expect this behavior.

Lauro, could you help me understand why this requires exceptions in LayoutTests/platform/glib/TestExpectations? Isn't the base URL change relevant for all platforms?

For reference, I'm tweaking them slightly in https://github.com/WebKit/WebKit/pull/11968.
