   If it doesn't, or if writing modes don't work, the divs won't be square.

  <p>Test passes if there is a <strong>green square</strong> below, and if it is the <strong>same size as the blue</strong> one, not the orange one.
  <p>If any of the 3 colored shapes is not a square, or if the orange and blue squares are the same size, the test fails.
