Well, the tests are slow too, but that's a different issue ;-) For a 20min full rebuild, the 'testreport' takes almost 4 minutes, which is a very significant piece to me. > > One of my projects forks 309 testcases.

I'd have to get back to you on that. Last time I tried, I gave up on it, but more because I tried to keep just one copy of the property table, instead of purely suppressing them. Nevertheless, I prefer smaller files, rather than big ones. Perusing the code, I also discovered that the file is output to disk, but the transform is performed from the in-memory DOM tree anyhow, so it's not actually needed. BTW, I didn't quite understand why displaying the properties used some JavaScript, rather than a pure HTML table, as an external file. --DD --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
