Hi all,
Recently I found a regression and also in the past have seen other
regressions. I am not sure what tests are currently run or expected
for patches.
Since this project has transitioned away from the original author, and
there are many contributors, it may be more important to have some
tests in the project, especially for trickier areas, uncommon options,
and unique vmcores. There are also numerous ways to validate patches
in a CI system now. I started building one but then realized it
probably should be done inside the upstream project if possible.
Hi Dave,
Thanks for the suggestion, I'm interested :)
As far as I know, he had tested patches with hundreds of vmcores, and
Lianbo and Bhupesh can use them, but seems it doesn't have a test of
the --minimal option.
I also test patches with my test script, which has many commands and its
options fairly comprehensively, executes non-patched crash and patched
crash, measures elapsed time, and compare the outputs. But it also doesn't
have --minimal test. I will add it to my test.. and check out CI systems.
Thanks,
Kazu
