"Platform already tested" is a misguided concept. Almost any machine is
customized or deviating in some form or other. A listing of the form
beta1 beta2 ...
Linux ok ok
Solaris ok broken
...
is, IMHO, worse than useless, because it would actually decrease the
amount of wide-spread, diverse testing.
I wouldn't mind an automated process that builds and runs the test suite
regularly on many machines to inform developers during the development
cycle that they broke something really bad, but to make this part of the
beta testing process is sheer folly.
