5 years ago This is somewhat off-topic, but I think the way that spec introduces the command isn't what WebDriver intends; it isn't clear what the actual URL for the endpoint is. I don't think you need to define a prefix or anything in this case, just state what the URL is (because this extension isn't a vendor extension).
In any case I think this proposal looks fine, although to be clear that shouldn't be read as any kind of statement on the overall Reporting API spec, which I know nothing about. I assume that were the spec to change, you would keep the tests and testdriver up-to-date with the current spec.

Summary
I propose to add TestDriver support for the "generate_test_report" WebDriver command, which will allow generic reports to be consistently generated during web platform tests. This command is specced as part of the Reporting API spec here.
Motivation
The real-world causes of reports (like deprecations, interventions, and crashes) can differ between different user agents. In order to test reporting consistently, we need the ability to generate reports universally across the web platform. This command provides that ability.
Risks
I am not aware of any risks.
Details
No additional details.
