Yes, but AFAIK the Solaris test suites and the ksh93/AST test suites are designed to do different things - the ksh93 tests were created to find bugs which were hit once (to prevent that they ever surface again) while the Solaris test suites are more designed to find violations of standards... or am I wrong here ? > Such suites should be part of our standards testsuites which get run: > - for larger products and changes to important subsystems > - for all builds. But would these test suites be part of which single build - and break the build if a test failure occurs ? ---- Bye, Roland -- __ . . __ (o.\ \/ /.o) roland.mainz at nrubsig.org \__\/\/__/ MPEG specialist, C&&JAVA&&Sun&&Unix programmer /O /==\ O\ TEL +49 641 7950090 (;O/ \/ \O;)
