I encounter two problems with that strategy: * figuring out which of the 200+ package names to write; and * many things fail immediately and most things are skipped, because `raco test` doesn't use the test customizations in "props" the way DrDr does. I would like to say `raco test -p main-distribution` to get essentially DrDr's results on my machine. > > For now: I build, run some tests, and then push --- hoping that I can > > fix or revert quickly when DrDr uncovers problems. > > > > > Perhaps we should be thinking about generalizing the ring-0-based DrDr so > we can ask to try out changes? Yes, it would be great if you work on that. I think the way forward is to split out "props" information into "info.rkt" files, but I haven't had time to pursue that direction myself. _________________________ Racket Developers list: http://lists.racket-lang.org/dev
