A far better answer is to deliver the tests via a separate package. Integrate the tests in ON, but do _not_ run them as part of the build process -- deliver the tests in a package so that they can be installed on a test system, and so that BFU automatically includes them on all BFU'd systems. We can then get ON-PIT to run the tests regularly as part of the normal system test process. Though I still think the tests don't belong in ON, the code location is a much smaller issue than having the tests run as part of nightly builds. -- James Carlson, KISS Network <james.d.carlson at sun.com> Sun Microsystems / 1 Network Drive 71.232W Vox +1 781 442 2084 MS UBUR02-212 / Burlington MA 01803-2757 42.496N Fax +1 781 442 1677
