Removing the test so it passes on a Windows system with a real bug is

So, a driver blacklist is in order then?

Isn't the point of winetest just to do a sanity check on the wine regression
tests to make sure they are correct and valid. You don't need a 100%
pass rate to prove that the tests are valid as long as you understand the
reason for failure. Putting a windows driver blacklist in a wine regression
test just doesn't seem right.


Maybe not, but seeing red enttries in the HTML report doesn't seem right either.
And why should anyone reading these logs have to remember which driver
was or wasn't broken...?




I would rather see effort spent worrying about bugs in wine sound drivers
rather than bugs in windows drivers. But then, winetest isn't meant to be
run on wine which is a shame because it would be ideal for identifying
which wine hardware/os/library versions are causing problems.



Winetest has a "runningunderwine" report option. Running it under Wine will be
supported.
