Rich Trott ff001c12b0 test: move WPT to its own testing module
This is first in a hoped-for series of moves away from a monolithic
common.js that is loaded for every test and towards a more modular
approach. (In the end, common.js will hopefully contain checks for
variables leaking into the global space and perhaps some of the more
ubiquitous functions like common.mustCall().)

Move the WPT testing code to its own module.

Test Directories

Directory Runs on CI Purpose
abort No Tests for when the --abort-on-uncaught-exception flag is used.
addons Yes Tests for addon functionality along with some tests that require an addon to function properly.
cctest Yes C++ test that is run as part of the build process.
common Common modules shared among many tests. [Documentation]
debugger No Tests for debugger functionality along with some tests that require an addon to function properly.
disabled No Tests that have been disabled from running for various reasons.
fixtures Test fixtures used in various tests throughout the test suite.
gc No Tests for garbage collection related functionality.
inspector Yes Tests for the V8 inspector integration.
internet No Tests that make real outbound connections (mainly networking related modules). Tests for networking related modules may also be present in other directories, but those tests do not make outbound connections.
known_issues Yes Tests reproducing known issues within the system. All tests inside of this directory are expected to fail consistently. If a test doesn't fail on certain platforms, those should be skipped via `known_issues.status`.
message Yes Tests for messages that are output for various conditions (console.log, error messages etc.)
parallel Yes Various tests that are able to be run in parallel.
pseudo-tty Yes Tests that require stdin/stdout/stderr to be a TTY.
pummel No Various tests for various modules / system functionality operating under load.
sequential Yes Various tests that are run sequentially.
testpy Test configuration utility used by various test suites.
tick-processor No Tests for the V8 tick processor integration. The tests are for the logic in lib/internal/v8_prof_processor.js and lib/internal/v8_prof_polyfill.js. The tests confirm that the profile processor packages the correct set of scripts from V8 and introduces the correct platform specific logic.
timers No Tests for timing utilities (setTimeout and setInterval).
