Hi Thorsten,

And also again: let's stop this discussion (and especially allegations
obviously caused by misunderstandings) until we have got information
about what the tests cover exactly and if this is what we want.


Do you think it makes sense to break this "what do they cover?" question down to source file level, eg. stating exactly which CXX, HXX, java file, etc. is being covered or do you think more of a functional coverage description.


To clearify why I am asking such question:

I am still wondering if it could be somehow possible to guess at a good subset of thoses tests for checking only stuff that has been changed on the CWS automatically. But (as jogi and others already mentioned a few times) the type of which those tests are is on the level of system testing and not on the level of unit testing. For Unit testing there would automatically be some kind of mapping to source code level. But well System testing is different. So if we somehow would in accompaning tooling for applying a subset of tests want to be able to select tests ( and preselect a good choice automatically) I am wondering on to which level we can get. Should there be only a selection based on applications eg. writer, calc, draw, chart, ... or do we want and can we provide more detailed selection? Could this selection be based on names/descriptions of individual tests? Would we want to preselect eg. all of the writer tests or can we maybe deselect some writer tests automatically because we know they do cover areas of code which is not touched in the CWS?
