Yeah I'm spoiled, I do my testing on VMs hosted on a machine with 32GBs of RAM. :D > But, increasing it to 256MB (and using cleanup) did help: started the > testsuite yesterday evening, and haven't seen any failures (this > morning, the ra_serf tests were still running, but ra_local and ra_svn > were finished ... no failures). > > Problem solved it seems. > > Or do we have to worry about the failure modes of svn (or of the > testsuite) when the disk is full? I don't think we have any problematic failure modes when the disk is full. However, I can't imagine there's any sane way that the test suite can know that the disk filled since the disk can fill in so many places when running the test (between various calls inside the tests or even between tests). So I'm not sure there's any great way to resolve strange looking test failures from disk space issues.
