[apparently a rented brain in use this noon]
First of all we always should note the "installcheck" directory. Incomplete
and a bit burdensome but it is consistent.
Sorry for taking a bit to get back to you. The automated test / smoke-test /
regression-test framework we have internally is more integrated with our ZMC UI
system and on through to more of our proprietary features. It wouldn't be
useful for Amanda users.
Some improved and focused unit tests would be welcome and we should be aiming
closer to changes as they occur in the underlying Amanda code. As you can tell
we've been relying on the consistency of OSS reliability for a long time, as
everyone on Linux has. Giving back both to Amanda and giving ourselves
"permission to change code" requires having tests in place for that code.
