Starting with commit 64a7ccd2, t/bin/build-test-packages builds test packages only when their sources have changed. The sources are generated from templates and the test specifications. For each test, the manifest is located in ./debian/test-out/packages/.../source-files.sha1sums. For the Gitlab runner, it means that only toolchain changes or updated prerequisites (but not updated test specifications or templates) should invalidate stored artifacts. Otherwise, test packages can be carried from one run to the next. Please feel free to implement it, if you know how. At this point, it is not clear if and how adaptive building will be offered in t/bin/runtests. We may rely instead on the fix for #927476 to provide a warning, although it is less customer-friendly than it should be. Kind regards Felix Lechner
