See what's happening with i586.
Wasting hardware testing hundreds of scenarios on an architecture a minority, a shrinking minority
Taking position as devil's advocate - one might as well ask why we test XFCE/LXDE. It's a "minority", after all.
We currently (and have always) test XFCE/LXDE at precisely the same level we're now testing i586.. one or two scenarios (each containing ~35 tests) to make sure it's still working okay This compares to previously, where Tumbleweed i586 testing was dozens of different scenarios, each containing 20-40 tests, effectively duplicating the effort we were already doing on x86_64 It was nice for completeness, but not proportionate and very wasteful of time and hardware.. XFCE/LXDE is actually a good example of how i586 is now getting tested more proportionally to similarly popular stacks/platforms, thanks! -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
