* No way for a developer to request testing results for a specific branch And against particular branch. How is "for a specific branch" different from "against a particular branch?" it seems as though you're repeating what I meant to say (?) My library depend in lib A, B, C. I want to test against new_dev branch of A, HEAD branch of B and 1_33 branch of C.
So assemble a branch that contains everything you want, check it in, and request the test. SVN is really good for that sort of thing because of the way it copies "by reference".
Switching branches for testing practically implies non-incremental testing. That can't be done efficiently without significant changes to how we run tests or to the amount of hardware available for testing. Regards, m
