Mark Miller commented on SOLR-4169: ----------------------------------- The truth on Solr tests is that way more people than just me have been making them a lot better for a long time now. It's tended not to be a noisy affair - a lot more slow and steady grinding than talking. The best thing you can do for Solr tests if you are interested them is lend a hand. Like I said, it's been a long battle - but the pay off is much nearer than someone with a 30k view might think. We have made tremendous progress. I don't have to convince you - the tests will end up speaking for themselves. > The test suite should consistently pass > --------------------------------------- > > Key: SOLR-4169 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-4169 > Project: Solr > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Tests > Reporter: Robert Muir > Priority: Blocker > Fix For: 4.1 > > > I'm at the end of my rope. > Last week I tried to help with this: but its already wednesday and solr tests > are 20x worse. > Users are complaining that they cannot get snapshots and test them, because > the tests fail all the time. > Maven dependencies are wrong, but we never knew, because the tests never > succeeded so the validation task hasn't actually run in months. > I think fixing this situation is a blocker to release: I can't imagine a > bigger blocker actually. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
