We haven't been running all our tests in GitHub Actions (i.e. PR validation) because it was too time consuming to do so. I don't recall how slow it was when someone last tried; it's probably better now but still slow. To make up for this, there is a GHA only for SolrJ if a PR touches SolrJ.
There's now a PR here to introduce a new GHA that builds on Crave.io on a beefy machine: https://github.com/apache/solr/pull/1303 The PR validation took 11 minutes which is similar to the amount of time it took a GHA to just do precommit checks -- 10 minutes :-) I think we can remove the SolrJ specific GHA as it'll be redundant. Furthermore, anyone can use this to run tests from the convenience of your laptop at the CLI while you are in the middle of any change (doesn't matter what you have committed or not, pushed or not). To do so, run: crave run -- './gradlew localSettings && ./gradlew --max-workers=`nproc` -Ptests.jvms=48 test' Yeah that's long. There is a discussion in JIRA underway that may lead to eliminating the "localSettings" step if, for example, it's moved to a bash script executed by the gradle wrapper (my proposal). I should also be able to configure crave with a default run configuration with this baked in. I'll post an update when I'm able to do that. ~ David Smiley Apache Lucene/Solr Search Developer http://www.linkedin.com/in/davidwsmiley
