Hello all

It seems that there is agreement that some sort of automated testing is "a good thing" ;-). I'll have some free time in the next couple of days and plan on throwing something like this together on a spare box. I was thinking along the lines:

- several qemu images (one with Debian, one with Windows XP - I can get a free student license for it, etc)
- a script does a checkout of the trunk, checks if the version number is different from the last checkout (to avoid spamming the list :-))
- the script introduces the source in each VM, starts the VM and lets the different compilers available in the VM (like gcc 3.3, 3.4, mingw) compile the source
- if the compile fails, it collects the error logs
- if the compile succeeds, performance and functionality tests are run with the resulting binary - the is the most nebulous part for the moment for me - if I recall Fabrice said that compiling something inside a VM is a good performance test...
- results are sumitted to the list - if you are ok with that, I wouldn't want to spam the list

Please comment if you find the testing methodology good and what performance and functionality test should the process include...

Best regards.
