Could DrDr say "This build is not the latest" or "The latest push is 234234"? On 08/08/2011 11:37 AM, Jay McCarthy wrote: > It is useful to test all of them to find out when errors start. It > doesn't do the newest first, because then the calculation of "new > issue" wouldn't make any sense, becau

It is useful to test all of them to find out when errors start. It doesn't do the newest first, because then the calculation of "new issue" wouldn't make any sense, because you wouldn't have the previous push's tests. Jay On Mon, Aug 8, 2011 at 11:34 AM, Jon Rafkind wrote: > Another request: cou

This is a rare event (playing catchup like this) so I think it is probably best if we just let it catch up. Should be just a couple of more days (maybe a week) by my sketchy guesstimationizing. Robby On Mon, Aug 8, 2011 at 12:34 PM, Jon Rafkind wrote: > Another request: could DrDr process the la

Another request: could DrDr process the latest push first? Its a little annoying to get emails for tests that failed when the latest push fixes them but DrDr is so far behind. Is there any benefit to testing all the intermediate pushes? On 08/08/2011 09:56 AM, Vincent St-Amour wrote: > I love DrDr

I like the two-times-in-a-row thought. FWIW, please try to avoid race conditions of the second kind. I think the drracket test suites are special because they fail not-so-often and I don't actually know how to fix them. If either of those weren't true then I'd say they should just not run in drd

2011-08-08 Thread Vincent St-Amour
I love DrDr, but there's a small thing that annoys me about it. Some tests are prone to intermittent failures. For example, some benchmarks need to create a file, and several benchmarks share the same file, which leads to race conditions. Similarly, some DrRacket tests sometimes fail for focus re
