Hi,
thanks for the many replies so far. As far as I see it, there are three
major concerns:
- The regression tests might take too long to run,
- the regression tests might be too cumbersome to execute,
- the findings of the regression tests might not justify the efforts to
run them.
Additionally the suggestion was made to run a pilot to test the new
regression test handling. This is exactly what we will try to do,
improve the test tool and prepare the test cases, so that we are able to
run a pilot and clarify the above questions.
Regards,
Jörg

Hi,
in the past weeks I had some discussions with developers and members
from the QA whether and how we could establish regular automated
regression tests. The results of these discussions I have collected in
the Wiki page "Steps towards regular automated regression testing"
(http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Steps_towards_regular_automated_regression_testing).
There are still some open questions about e.g. required hardware, a
milestone potentially being ready for usage a few hours later. So if you
have input on this topic I would be happy to see content added to the
Wiki page or answers being posted to this mail. I would also be
interested to know whether people find it desirable at all to introduce
such regular regression tests.
Thanks,
Jörg
