Well it is simple enough to eliminate or hide text with a script. But some of the tests test text, right?
Indeed, those would obviously not be helped by such a procedure.
Is it possible to find out which fonts actually appear in the test suite and ensure that they are found on the test system in question?
Some of the tests use Arial, but a lot just don't specify any font, which seems to result in different fonts on different systems. How does Inkscape select a font in such a case?
Do I remember correctly that batik matches even the font in the SVG test suite?
From what I saw Batik doesn't even match simple shapes exactly. This doesn't necessarily mean it fails to render the shape correctly, just that it's slightly different from the reference image.
