opening up runTests.html and looking at the results object i get a few results that are null... it seems that is unintended and we'd rather a true boolean.

this does seem related to http://bugs.dojotoolkit.org/ticket/13298 though regardless of philosophy i think these three-ish instances are bugs.

A null value is valid. It's supposed to be for when the test does not apply. For example the test bug-es5-trim will return null if String#trim does not exist. Because it doesn't exist it can't be buggy (at least that is the thinking behind null).

Which tests return null?

these do in edge chrome:

["bug-array-concat-arguments", "bug-query-selector-ignores-caps", "activex-enabled"]

the null for bug-array-concat-arguments is questionable because it only "doesn't apply" when an other bug isn't present but that's less obvious. The others are non-bugs because bug-query-selector-ignores-caps is only a quirks mode issue (maybe tweak the bug name) and activex-enabled only applies to IE.
