@Rory, Jira in the past had the ability to create sub tasks or convert a current task to a sub task. I'm guessing that apache's jira should be able to do that.
@All, I've add a Paths Class under the Lucene.Net.Tests Util folder (feel free to rename, refactor as long as the tests still work) to help with working with paths in general. This should help with forming paths relative to the temp directory or the project root. NUnit's Shadow Copy tends to throw people off when trying to get the path of the current assembly being tested to build up a relative path, the Path class should help with that. - Michael On Fri, Jul 1, 2011 at 4:09 PM, Rory Plaire <codekai...@gmail.com> wrote: > My thinking is just a separate ticket for each one.
