No need for SVN or other tools.
I was planning to jar up tests from modules just as I have with the test support classes (in build/test/support.jar) and I'd expect those to remain in the hdk. Adding an ant script to run the tests would not be trivial - due to the api/impl/bootclasspath/etc issues - but should be possible. -Mark. > > > > - for testing engineer (or somebody from developers): > > Looking through the result reports for different platforms, tries to > > reproduce detected failures and propose fixes for them. > > > > Of cause, it is my thoughts only and may be it does not true, but I want to > > try to prepare testing scripts based on HDK (or snapshots of workspace) and > > tests archives. > > it's not an either-or though.
