Being able to cycle tests quickly on all three platforms really does speed multi-platform development. If we put Boost's collective mind to it, perhaps we can come up with a way to cycle tests much more quickly. I suspect we can find the machine resources,
OSL has two x86 Linux boxes we can spare (and should be usable in a week or so). I'm thinking one of them can be an interactive testing farm and perhaps the other can be set up for "continuous" testing, e.g., each time a CVS commit is performed [1], regression tests are re-run [2] and the results posted immediately (potentially coupled with a script that automatically complains to the committer, as I've mentioned before).
[1] Actually, it should wait about 5 minutes so that other related commits can get into the repository first. [2] Of course, if a test is already running then the re-run request should be queued.
And you just describe what Buildbot does :-) The basic functionality for mine has been running this week without problems: http://build.redshift-software.com:9990/ -- And I'll be adding things like posting result, individual running of tests, and selection of tests to run this weekend. -- -- Grafik - Don't Assume Anything -- Redshift Software, Inc. - http://redshift-software.com -- rrivera/acm.org - grafik/redshift-software.com - 102708583/icq
