-1 on changing the check I'm with Owen - let's leave things alone for now.
On 3/17/20, 7:43 PM, "Owen Nichols" <onich...@pivotal.io> wrote: At least one person on the thread (@anthony) raised concerns but has not replied since. Also since this thread was started, the bug that miscounted files has been fixed, which is sufficient that stress tests would have been run for about 95% of PRs that previously (erroneously) were given a free pass. Maybe that is enough? I’m hesitant to raise the bar for a required check if it will become an added hardship, and especially hesitant to create a situation where the highly-unpopular “manual override” might be the only option. It might be better to just make slight increases from 25 files/6 hours to 35 files/10 hours, and just ask that if anyone is touching more test files than that (due to a refactor/rename/reformat) to please make that a separate PR separate from any actual code changes. This is better for reviewers too... Discussion period goes through the end of this week.
