- Testing
Wine has a TestBot and a number of test cases, which is a great tool
for developers to make sure their patches are right. mingw-w64 does
not have such thing and mostly depends on developers doing their own
testing and regression reports after the patch is committed. We could
integrate mingw-w64 testing with Wine TestBot to make sure that we
don't break things (well, at least limit that possibility). I believe
that it would nicely accelerate mingw-w64 development workflow as well
as ensure that mingw-w64+Wine don't regress.
Here is how I imagine TestBot could look do:
1. Accept mingw-w64 patches (like it currently does for Wine patches)
2. Build a compiler toolchain
This is scripted in many places, so it shouldn't be too hard to
automate. We could probably start with the most common configuration.
3. Build a few projects - to make sure they build.
Wine, Wine Gecko, VLC should give a good coverage.
Francois, how does that sound?
Ideally, mingw-w64 would have its own test suite that we could run here
as well in addition to the above.
Thanks,
Jacek
