There is and I will try to get it set up next week, unless Robin beats me to it 
first.

Can the mirroring to  be
more frequent than every 10 minutes?


Yes, we're working with the System Team to make that happen as soon as 
something is pushed into the repository. I don't have an ETA, but I 
think it'll happen pretty soon.

Can the mirroring to  be 
more frequent than every 10 minutes? Or, is there a way to directly run 
a test such as 
?


(With Hg, the mirroring was pretty much right away and I found that to 
be real convenient.)

No there isn't, but there is a vast ongoing project to provide tooling 
and infrastructure around the testing effort and listing tests is part 
of it. I doubt that this will take the form of a manifest though, the 
extracted data can go straight into a DB and be reused from there.



Thanks for the hard work btw, seeing tests in github is very
satisfactory and appreciated,


Glad you like it :)

Hi Robin and sorry if this has been asked and/or answered elsewhere (I've
been ultra-busy elsewhere as of late),

I suppose that there is a hook in place on the github repo so that
manifests are auto-magically re-generated whenever a new test is added to a
main directory? Or is this still manual?

Thanks for the hard work btw, seeing tests in github is very satisfactory
and appreciated,

Reviewing test submissions

[Robin Berjon]

Hi all,

after having moved the test suite to the GitHub repository, we've been 
busy cleaning things up. One item of particular importance is that 
everything that was in "submission" directories is now in pull requests 
(the very last few of those are right now being finalised).


The changes being in pull requests makes it very easy for people to 
review the tests. You can just poke at the code, and if it looks good 
press a big green button. It's fun, it makes your hair sheen and your 
fresh bright, and you get to show off at cocktail parties about how you 
just made a major contribution to building a better web for all of 
humankind and its descendants to come.


All of that with just the press of a big and friendly green button! (And 
a little bit of code reading.)


So if you're ready for the undying adoration of wild throngs of web 
developers, if you've got the unassumingly humble tone of your "I was 
just doing my job" line, and if in you feel a hankering to press glossy 
green buttons with a motion of such lissom yet muscular grace that 
bystanders feel like it's happening in slow motion, then waste no time 
and head straight for:


https://github.com/w3c/web-platform-tests/pulls

Let's party!


A big thanks to Ms2ger and Odin for helping a lot with cleaning up the 
moved repo!
