(Incomplete) list of WebEngine features, and how to test for them.
Chromium DevTools
Version: Qt 5.4.0 onwards
Description: Ability to inspect and debug layout and performance issues of any web content.

HTML5 Geolocation
Version: Qt 5.5.0 onwards
Description: Javascript Geolocation API with QtLocation as a backend
Documentation: n/a
How to test: QtLocation should be built before QtWebEngine. Using demobrowser, go to http://html5demos.com/geo, and allow the page to find your position. Note that on Windows you need an external GPS receiver connected, see QtPositioning documentation.
PPAPI / Adobe Flash
Version: Qt 5.6.0 onwards
Description: Support for PPAPI plugins, and Flash in particular
