[dash-dev] Recent changes to default test runner in Athena
|
Last week I rolled out support for running tests on Windows and (sorta)
on Mac. At the same time, I switched the default testing task done for a
build which doesn't state its build.steps in build.properties explicitly
from "test" to the new "testLocal", which works great on Windows and
Linux, but requires that your Hudson job be wrapped with Xvnc so that it
has an available display on which to run the tests.
Be it resolved:
Should the default operation be the old "test" task, which works out of
the box on build.eclipse.org, or "testLocal", which works OOTB on Linux
and Windows (and somewhat on Mac)? Which is more important, headless
*server* operation, or headless *local* operation?

Oh, and if you didn't see my blog about other recent changes to Athena
(and another reason why your UI tests might have broken in Hudson), see:
