Unfortunately, the new recorded scripts tests are catching bugs in
rt.py and the tinderboxes themselves (random false positives and
false negatives) that look unrelated to recorded scripts, so I'm
blocked until I can get some help fixing them.
That is yet unproven - rt.py and tinderbox are running the tests
the exact same way in both trunk and the recorded_scripts branch
and we are giving you help in finding out what is wrong in so far
as we can with rt and tinderbox.
Yes, I agree. As I mentioned to you and Heikki in my earlier email,
the only think I know for sure is that running rt.py -r on the
recorded_scripts branch consistently fails on Windows when run on my
machine and Dan's machine, but randomly reports success on the
recorded_scripts tinderbox and also randomly reports the wrong error.
This made me suspect a bug in the tinderbox, and it might also be the
source of a bug Dan noticed on the previous recorded script framework
where the tests would consistently fail for him but the tinderbox
would report success.
One last obstacle to checking in the new recorded script is that we
still haven't been able to run the Linux tinderbox, so we might run
into a snag with those tests. I know you've been busy working on this
and so I expect it will be up pretty soon.
I'll say it again - rt.py just reports what the return code from
Chandler is and dumps the log files. Tinderbox does exactly the
same from rt.py.
The only new bugs in the process were to the Chandler launcher
where some environment variables were shown to need changes and one
of those has been made and the other will be pushed to trunk today.
