Hi Autotest users,

If you need to run a few tests on multiple machines and long for a tool to
automate the process, you may want to check out Dioxide. Dioxide can not
only automate test execution, but also help the testers in many other ways
as well:

 * Automates test scheduling
 * Works seamlessly with manual testing
 * Provides a failure triage workflow with automation facility
 * Provides a dashboard to visualize test results and stats
 * Provides an interactive scripting mode

For more details, please see its home page:

You may want to ask: what's the deal? why can't we just group all the tests
in one big control file, or just schedules them separately all at once? Of
course you can do that, but think about it: the purpose of running tests is
to find problems, so you want to suspend testing for failure triage if
something is wrong, and you want to be able to resume from where you left
off after problems have been resolved. Neither of the approaches mentioned
above would work ideally. Dioxide is designed to solve this problem.

Thanks!
Jiqing
