Chandan,

The tests are slow and that is frustrating! However, they should not
be that slow. I'll be traveling back the US, but will you work with
Udai, Adam, Van, and others on the list to debug the slowness problem?
I think we can help you get it going faster.

On my machine in the US, I can run a compete build and test in 30
minutes or so. This is still too slow! But it is better than 71
minutes. We are working on making the build faster - the reason it's
slow right now is that we've been making improvements to the test
suite so that the tests can run independently. Now that is done, we
will be breaking the application/ module into other smaller modules,
and making the smaller modules run faster.

Unfortunately, to make things better in the long run, we had to make
them worse in the short run. But our idea is that we will make it
faster soon.

Another idea is to only run the tests that you know are covering your
area - while you are developing. You can run both unit, integration,
and acceptance tests individually from Eclipse and also from maven on
the command line. Are you doing this? This is sure to be quicker than
running all the tests all the time. You can debug the problems with
Selenium this way - run one test inside eclipse. If that works, then
run one test from the command line. If that doesn't work, you can
debug it easier, and re-run in a minute, rather than 71 minutes.

 If you need help getting set up do this, let us know!
