Hi All,
In order to speed up the patch review cycle, we have framed a checklist of 
testing that's needed against an SWT patch submitted for review.
Here is the complete list that needs to be associated with the patch:
Results of the test snippet (if any) associated with that specified bug. 
Results of the Widget's new behavior(if applicable) as tested with various 
SWT examples: ControlExample.java, CustomControlExample.java and 
BrowserExample.java 
For changes done to any specific widget, which all related SWT snippets 
are covered from the list of: SWT Snippets. 
When adding a new API always add new JUnit tests as separate gerrit 
patch(as gerrit validation will only succeed when the new API is in master 
and an IBuild exists) 
For Windows only patch, which all operating systems are covered like 
Windows7, Windows10(at times specific version of Win10 if applicable) 
For MAC only patch, patch should be tested on latest OS version. 
For Linux only patch, which all GTK versions are covered (GTK3, GTK4 or 
both) and also if applicable what all desktop managers(gnome, wayland 
etc..) are covered. 
For patches across multiple platform, the patch should have been tested on 
all affected platforms. 
Also if you expect some behavior change in Eclipse, always launch Eclipse 
in self-hosted mode to verify the behavior.
