I think it sounds great... in theory. But I believe you will hit the matrix problem Emmanuel discusses.
However, I also want to make sure we are not removing "smoke tests" from the projects themselves. I don't care what you call them: smoke tests, integration tests, unit tests, regression tests, etc. But there needs to be tests in ORM (for example) that ensure that basic OSGi functionality is not broken when we make changes. More importantly, these tests are needed for contributors so they can verify that they are not breaking something when they make changes. Expecting them to check out some "other project" for "full testing" is simply unreasonable. Of course this means making these tests stable. On 12/13/2013 08:40 AM, Brett Meyer wrote: > Exactly.
