Just a reminder. As announced

"cwscheckapi replaced with subsequenttests"), subsequenttests is the new
tool to run all kinds of OOo developer tests (that require a complete
installation set to test against), particularly replacing cwscheckapi.
With CWS sb120 integrated in DEV300_m80, the framework and tests will
hopefully be reliable enough for actual use, see
<http://tools.openoffice.org/servlets/ReadMsg?list=tinderbox&msgNo=360>
"new step for buildbots."
Developers are encouraged to run subsequenttests now, similarly to how
they ran cwscheckapi in the past. See the first link above for details.
Due to a code change in CWS sb120, Gregor's buildbot framework will no
longer patch away the subsequenttests step in DEV300_m80, so most of the
buildbots (those running on Gregor's framework) will automatically start
to include that step. There are apparently problems with X11 on some of
the bots (see the second link above), and there might still be sporadic
failures (see
<http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/w/index.php?title=Test_Cleanup#unoapi_Tests_2>),
potentially causing buildbot builds to go red. I leave it up to Gregor
to disable any test steps again that turn out to cause trouble; please
inform him about problems you encounter. (Due to vacation schedules, we
probably won't be able to track down those X11 problems for the next two
weeks.)
As expected, all build bots that don't skip that test, break. Some of
them, as expected, because of DISPLAY problems, some others because they
can't generate a PDF file in some of the test (what apparently worked in
CWS sb120). Do we nevertheless want to keep these tests running on the
build bots. "Side effects" of this will be that all CWS based on m80 and
later will have status "red" in EIS.

Mathias
