Do you really, really, really think all the tests will succeed under Wine from day 1 and we will be able to maintain them failure-free?
Absolutely. There's a very simple way of enforcing that: I'm not comitting anything that causes make test to fail.
That's great to hear, but I think you have to modify your statement a bit -- you may want to commit new tests don't yet pass, if they show a real flaw in Wine.
That means you probably want to live with less than 100% success rates. The important thing when committing a new change to Wine (as opposed to a change to the test suite) is that it not cause any *new* failures. I bet that's what you meant.
I'm so jazzed by the new emphasis on regression testing. There were sparks of it in previous years http://groups.google.com/groups?hl=en&selm=38CE7B2D.77204824%40alumni.ca... but it didn't catch on for some reason.
Francios, are your tests (from http://fgouget.free.fr/wine/booktesting-en.shtml) part of this framework yet? - Dan
