Comment (by noruzzaman):
== Test Report
Patch tested: https://github.com/WordPress/wordpress-develop/pull/11070
=== Environment
- WordPress: 7.0-beta2-20260226.234351
- PHP: 7.4.33
- Server: PHP.wasm
- Database: WP_SQLite_Driver (Server: 8.0.38 / Client: 3.51.0)
- Browser: Chrome 145.0.0.0
- OS: macOS
- Theme: Twenty Twenty-Five 1.4
- MU Plugins: None activated
- Plugins:
* Test Reports 1.2.1
=== Steps taken
1. Inspect Admin Help menu colors using Dev Tools.
2. Notice active tab with old border-left color of #72aee6.
3. Apply the patch from [https://github.com/WordPress/wordpress-
develop/pull/11070 11070].
4. Compile assets using 'npm run build'.
5. Inspect the element and confirm the new border-left color of var(--wp-
admin-theme-color).
=== Expected result
- We expect to see the new CSS variable --wp-admin-theme-color instead of
the hardcoded color value.
=== Actual Results
Patch is solving the problem. The active help tab now correctly uses the
admin theme color variable.
