I´m in too... Building and Testing: - Win2000/Apache1.3.12/Mysql/CGI - Win2000/Apache1.3.12/ODBC/CGI - closing/commenting invalid bugs for regression and real life tests, both I´d do mod_apache too, but unfortunately all trys to build it were unsuccessfull, I´ve been told of this instructions: http://www.geocities.com/ro_marius/mod_php4_compilation.html but they didn´t help... regards Andrei Zmievski wrote:

Having testers run RC's on their development sites (real life scripts) is probably the best regression test you can do. For example, Zend.com's code covers most features PHP has to offer, and when testing a version on that (of course an internal development version of Zend.com) you are much more likely to catch bugs than with a regression test. True, but regression test can be useful (like for that min()/max() stuff). -Andrei "Someone clearly thinks that C is a garbage collected language" -- Morten Welinder
