I can collaborate on some fixes, just haven't had a solaris setup for a decade or more, and never had access to an AIX one. I've become a bit more familiar with the framework than I planned to over the last months. There's info in the file testing/framework/test-framework.rst, which is mirrored into the wiki as https://github.com/SCons/scons/wiki/TestingMethodology which I've tried to update as I learn things, if you find things that would be good to document we should add those as well. _______________________________________________ Scons-dev mailing list Scons-dev@scons.org https://pairlist2.pair.net/mailman/listinfo/scons-dev
