Comment #7 on issue 2729 by [email protected]: cctest/test-api/StaticGetters is crashing in debug mode
http://code.google.com/p/v8/issues/detail?id=2729

I don't see an urgent need for change here.

We need support for running several test in the same cctests process because some cctests actually define a dependency on another test that must run first to set up some state.

I think in an ideal world, running an arbitrary set of tests in the same cctests process should work; tests should clean up after themselves sufficiently to allow that. That said, I haven't investigated if it's possible (and how much effort it would be) to fix tests that don't support this currently.

Simply using the test driver script sounds like a reasonable solution to me. I agree with Sven that it's the only officially supported way of running the test suite. FWIW, in case of failures, it always prints the failing tests' command lines that can be used to invoke them manually and individually.

If someone has a suggestion for a CL that increases robustness, I'm happy to take a look and continue the discussion based on such a concrete proposal. In the meantime, "WAI" SGTM.
