Improvements to the geolocation feature have stalled out because we don't have a way to test these patches. It seems the existing geolocation feature has been implemented without testing. (Boo!)
Testing geolocation seems different than testing other WebKit features because geolocation lives in WebCore/platform. One approach is to create a fake (or mock) geolocation service that DRT can control. This has been tried a couple of times: https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=21717 https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=28264 I couldn't find find any precedent for testing this kind of feature before, so I wanted to run this by the list to see if anyone has strong opinions about the right way to test geolocation.
