Another pressing issue regarding buildbots is to reduce the time it takes to run the tests. The current tests take about 2 hours to run, which does not encourage developers to run them often. Even the quicktest is very expensive to run. -- Anders _______________________________________________ fenics mailing list [email protected] http://fenicsproject.org/mailman/listinfo/fenics
