As you probably know, the HTMLWG recently moved its test suite to GitHub

We support the move.
cheers
Odin defined the new testing process for GH in [Proposal] and this will
replace most, if not all, of the testing processes already agreed
[Testing]. (Some things like using testharness.js will remain the same.)
Assuming this CfC passes:
* [Proposal] will likely be updated as we gain experience with GH and
may be replaced by more general information like
<https://github.com/w3c/web-platform-tests/blob/master/README.md>.
* The root of the repository will be the same as HTML(WG):
<https://github.com/w3c/web-platform-tests> and each of WebApps' specs
will have its own subdir. For example the Web Storage test suite would
be <https://github.com/w3c/web-platform-tests/webstorage/>.
* WebApps' hg test repository <https://dvcs.w3.org/hg/webapps/> will
become Read-only (i.e. write access will be turned off).
* Tobie, Robin, Odin and Ms2ger will do the work of the move (Test
Facilitators are not required to do the work).
If you have any comments or concerns about this CfC, please reply to
this e-mail by March 22 at the latest. Positive response is preferred
and encouraged, and silence will be considered as agreement with the
proposal.
-Thanks, AB
