what's the input to TestParser?

[Yuhao]

Hi All,

Under $firefox/obj-x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/dist/bin, there is a test
module called "TestParser". I was wondering that should be the input
file to this module? I tried pure html file of a page, but got the
error information "Unable to create a sink".


Thanks,
Yuhao

See

It's not used any more though, it only tests the old parser that
lives under parser/htmlparser/ -- the HTML5 parser that we use
now lives under parser/html

Thanks. But is there a separate test module for the new parser, just
like TestParser for the old parser? If not, is there a way to study
the performance of the parser only?

Thanks,
Yuhao

I don't know. Henri might know how to test performance of the new
HTML parser.
