  16         - rebalance new tests

  59
  60         * TODO: Updated to note areas that are now well-covered.
  61
  62         - Change the tests and the driver to avoid leaving large object
  63         graphs hanging around, since that throws off the subsequent tests.
  64
  65         * resources/sunspider-standalone-driver.js:

  77         - Rebalance test complexity.
  78
  79         Scaled all the tests so they take 400-600ms on a reasonably normal user setup:
  80
  81         Internet Explorer 7, Window XP, Dell Latitude D810 with a 2.13GHz Pentium M
  82
  83         However, for some tests, IE7 was a huge outlier compared to other
  84         major browsers. For those tests, I used Firefox 2.0.0.8 on the
  85         same OS and hardware as a normalization basis.

 133
 134         * tests/string-base64.js: Added. Does base64 encoding and decoding.
 135         * tests/string-tagcloud.js: Added. Parses a JSON string and
 136         generates tagcloud HTML markup based on the data.

 161         - New JavaScript benchmark
 162         http://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15515
 163
 164         A start on a new JavaScript benchmark, with standalone and
 165         browser-hosted drivers.
 166
 167         The test content is still incomplete and the drivers could use
 168         some more features but there is enough here to make a good start.
 169
 170         The drivers compute a 95% confidence interval on the mean for the
 171         whole test, each category, and each individual test to make it
 172         easier to tell whether differences are statistically
 173         significant. The confidence interval can be narrowed by running
 174         the test more times.
 175
 176         * TODO: Added. Remaining things that need to be done.
 177         * sunspider: Added. Perl script that acts as the standalone test driver.

 179         of standalone test driver.

 181         analysis code.

 187         tests.

 189         tests.
 190         * tests/LIST: Added. List of tests to use.
 191         * tests/bitops-3bit-bits-in-byte.js: Added. Some initial test content.
