Another trick that comes to mind is adding a little smarts to your
tests to prevent multiple runs from stomping on each other.
For StatusNet's remote subscription features, I have a client-side
test set which registers user accounts on two sites and confirms that
behavior is as expected posting

I am very much in favor of keeping it simple. I think the issue is

After thinking about this some more I think you are right. We should at

When you set up a wiki family, the resources are permanent. But, for a

Dan, I think you're overestimating the difficulty of the basic wiki
family method.
Here is all that is required:
* a single wildcard entry in Apache configuration
* one or two lines in LocalSettings.php to pull a DB name from the
hostname/path/CLI parameters.
As for cleaning up resources to keep
