They‘re working on it!
Motivation?
test suites are run by W3C and browser vendors
collected data equals articles, workshops, talks
YOU are the web, act like it!
Recap • testharness.js to run tests • firebase.io to aggregate
data • real browsers / devices or BrowserStack • don‘t wait for W3C to get their testing sorted, have some fun now
