Finally =)

Thank you very much.

Are you planning to add the test cases from the private test suite that are "public" or are you planning to start from scratch? Are you planning to include dstress tests[1]? Maybe the LDC test suite[2]?

Ooops! Sorry, I didn't saw your other post when I replied to this. I'm moving this comments so the discussion is all kept in that thread.

I figured I'd start simple and move tests that are obviously from bugzilla entries to this test suite.

The problem with incorporating fixes from other sources is the same as for source code, the license they're under.  DStress has never made that clear, though it's intention is very clear.

I think we can go a very long way with just bugzilla based reports since all of those are clearly usable and have a lot of coverage.

IIRC some big swaths of DStress are explicitly linked to bug numbers. Either derived from code in the bug to written explicitly to show a specific bug. I wonder if the author of DStress (is he still around?) would, at a minimum, place /them/ under some acceptable license (or even public domain).

And many of the private tests in the private suite are written by me. (I only discovered this once I saw the test suite <g>).

The original author was Thomas K?hne, I think now it's maintained by Christian Kamm (Cc'ed). Maybe he knows how to contact Thomas to ask him for details about the license. And I guess Christian could tell a little more about LDC's test suite too.

I just browsed the dstress code and there is a license file, GPL v2: http://www.dsource.org/projects/dstress/browser/license.txt

So I think dstress license is pretty clear.

Yes, many are either directly in bugzilla or linked from it.  Since dstress is gpl v2 (see other email on this thread), I'd prefer to stick with those that are directly included in bugzilla, which is public domain.  There's over 1900 closed dmd bugs.. most with good repro cases.  Quite a corpus of useful tests.
