This is probably a good time for me to put on my Hat of Philikon and echo this, but stronger: nobody should be landing features without tests, so *everyone* needs to have a test environment that works, and there's no glamorous path that involves not touching Robocop or JUnit... even during a hackathon. Of course a project branch starts with more breakage, but that doesn't eliminate the need for tests. Arguably this is even more important during a hackathon, because in wiring up my feature I'm probably going to break yours. Thanks, Margaret, for doing so much leg work to make that feasible rather than a distant ideal! _______________________________________________ mobile-firefox-dev mailing list [email protected] https://mail.mozilla.org/listinfo/mobile-firefox-dev
