[platform-releng-dev] What happened to our unit tests?

[David M Williams <david_williams@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I just wanted to update everyone on state
of our unit tests and why so few unit tests results for last night's Nightly.
(at quick glance we had linux only). 

First, we are done for the moment with
our windows 7 performance "tests of the tests" runs (bug 389857)
but the windows machine went offline at just the wrong time (probably due
to my over eagerness to be helpful, and that is one I can not restart).
It is back online now so we should expect results for tonight's nightly
build/test. 

Second, I have (mostly) moved to the
64 bit Mac (machine and VM) (bug 354774) but due to some hard coded names
(bug 390986) the results are not summarized on DL page. You can see them
at 
http://build.eclipse.org/eclipse/eclipse4N/siteDir/eclipse/downloads/drops4/N20121004-2000/testresults/html
if you don't mind looking at HTML files
one by one. 

I will get the summarizing function
fixed up by tonight, one way or another. 
Overall the results look promising taking
approx. 5 hours for that one run, but remember that's with the 2 DNF tests
removed, which used to be adding 4 hours to our test runs ... so, maybe
an hour faster than the other machine. 

Just keeping you informed ...

Thanks
