For most test environments I make the whole build fail as soon as a test=20 fails; this is implemented in the ant-based mauve test as well. The reason for this is simple; if a test fails its a regression bug; you ca= n't=20 commit changes while you have a regression bug. This might not seem fully logical for mauve; but do expect people to become= =20 very annoyed when tests fail. Its a mental thing; 100% correct is a world o= f=20 difference from 99.5% correct. - --=20 Regards Thomas -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.3 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFAkQBhCojCW6H2z/QRAvfkAJwMo1BgIdRyeTewvgt4oY+q09wi0QCfZyUJ IeWgI6C9oI5jnDeC4fA14Mo=3D =3DjM5V -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
