Of course but since you are also upstream active it could be just interesting to discover some bugs.
I already did that in the past - that's why 'make check-very-expensive' now passes on OBS only with a little set of NOPed-out tests, and with very little false-positive fallout. ;-)
OBS build hosts are somehow special
in comparison to real full-featured machines.
You can tell! Most problems are timing issues because e.g. the file system performance is sometimes not that predictable. And there's things like aarch64 ...
Hehe I know. Recently I've spent a few weeks to fix almost everything for util-linux' non-root checks. Now I've started to review root checks ... again a lot of work. But it's worth! While most issues just needed to be fixed in the test-suite itself, a few ones weretrue bugs. But the most benefit is that, once the tests are fixed we can enable them on OBS to discover newly added bugs automatically. Thats why we should run tests as complete as possible inclusive sudo. cu, Rudi -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+owner@opensuse.org
