You misunderstood me. I took that for granted. But I also think that before starting with the tests we should carefully select which tests we put into the different categories. I don't want to have 20 Writer tests that just test "something in Writer", run for 8 hours but don't test the code that usually is prone to regressions. Besides that I doubt that there is a representative set of test cases that can be used as "typical for Writer regressions". The regressions we had in the past always have been in completely different areas of the code and it strongly depends on the changed code where to look at. So having "Writer" as a category is too broad. I'm thinking about "text formatting", "tables", "layout", "graphics", "objects" etc. > OK.

And I'm looking forward for the test runs with the improved test tool.
