Ah that is great then. I was focused only on regressions caused by 46aed6d2 but it seems you fixed much more than I thought. Thank you! If I remember correctly many of the failing tests after edd37de8 were due to babel-specific code in the preamble. I will take a look to see if any failures are due to the nested language issue. > > In other words, I think that there is more of a concern of tests failing > > when they should pass than the other way around, when doing the tests in > > parallel. > > OK, one could still use the parallel version for quick testing what a > particular change does, and the serial one for final verification.

I would be interested in learning more about unit tests. I believe that Vincent has a unit test framework integrated into LyX somehow but I'm not sure there were enough votes in favor of putting it in. Scott
