<br>
The ESC are interested in improving unit (and other automated) testing<br>
and are interested in concrete ideas for implementing new automated<br>
tests to prevent regressions. We hope to turn this into a proposal for<br>
the Board, which if approved -could- turn into a tender to fund more<br>
work in this area. Having said that writing unit tests is every<br>
developers' responsibility where feasible - so this ask focuses on new<br>
infrastructure.<br>
<br>
It is noticeable that where there are existing tests & infrastructure,<br>
new tests are easier to create and often there are more of them - so are<br>
there places where we should work to create infrastructure ?<br>
<br>
Is there something we can improve by throwing hardware at it ? as we<br>
have done for the crash-testing; if so what hardware is needed ?<br>
<br>
Is there a large area of code that is completely un-tested or<br>
under-tested that you'd love us to invest in making test-able ?<br>
<br>
Is there a test that currently only runs in an obscure setup /<br>
corner-case that we can invest in standardizing and making more easy to<br>
use ?<br>
<br>
Constructive thoughts appreciated in reply here.<br>
