Since r176752 <http://trac.webkit.org/r176752> the layout test http/tests/misc/authentication-redirect-3/authentication-sent-to-redirect-same-origin-with-location-credentials.html is failing on platform GTK. The diff is (after 176757 <http://trac.webkit.org/176757>): https://build.webkit.org/results/GTK%20Linux%2064-bit%20Release%20%28Tests%29/r176761%20%284606%29/http/tests/misc/authentication-redirect-3/authentication-sent-to-redirect-same-origin-with-location-credentials-pretty-diff.html
Marked accordingly on the GTK expectations on https://trac.webkit.org/r176922
Does Gtk have custom results for this test? I wonder if it actually started to pass.
(In reply to comment #2) > Does Gtk have custom results for this test? I wonder if it actually started > to pass. It don't has (AFAIK). It is using the expected file for WK2 <LayoutTests/platform/wk2/http/tests/misc/authentication-redirect-3/authentication-sent-to-redirect-same-origin-with-location-credentials-expected.txt> that was added on 176757 <http://trac.webkit.org/176757>
The diff at that time is no longer available, so I don't know if we are still failing for the same reason, but what I know id the reason why we currently do this wrong is not a regression introduced in r176752. The problem is that credentials cached in WebCore take precedence over credentials provided in the URL in case of redirection.
