Ariel Weisberg edited comment on CASSANDRA-13265 at 4/27/17 3:33 PM: --------------------------------------------------------------------- You don't need to get all the tests passing. Only the ones broken specifically by your changes. So you have to run the tests on the base branch (cassandra-2.2, cassandra-3.0, cassandra-3.11, cassandra-trunk) or compare the results to https://builds.apache.org/view/A-D/view/Cassandra/job/Cassandra-2.2-test-all/ or the one specific to the version of your branch. You also need to be aware that a test might just be unreliable in CircleCI. The unit tests seem to be reliable to me when I was running them with my circle.yml, but I am not sure about the one on trunk. Certainly it runs additional tests which weren't running all the time before Circle and I don't think they were reliable when we started running them. was (Author: aweisberg): You don't need to get all the tests passing.
