JanZerebecki added a comment. With "Patch to extensions wmf branches" is B the one under test? Then A will AFAIK correctly be at what the submodule says. Only B will possibly be ahead of its submodule (more ahead than the patch under test), but that is what we want. Which wmf core branch(es) will you use here? The same extension wmf branch may be used in more than one core wmf branch. Maybe if the same tests were ran again when updating the submodule in core wmf branches we would only need to test with one core branch.
With "Patch to mediawiki wmf branches" are you proposing to stop automatically updating core wmf branches? > Potentially we could have mediawiki/core wmf branches to be automatically > updated whenever a patch is merged in an extension wmf branch. As @mmodell points out, that is what is currently happening for some wmf core branches (the one with the same name as the extension wmf branch and the latest). Neither for manual nor automatic submodule updates is there currently a test run for updating the submodule. AFAIK the current automatic way can not be used together with a test run.
