I call it iteration. For every iteration there is $_ENV['TEST_ITERATION']. Based on which different consts are defined by the pre-include script. I am using it for testing mysqlnd against a bunch of MySQL Server, the minimalistic configuration is doing 3 iterations against 4.1, 5.0 and 5.1 Server. Not sure that other extensions could benefit from it, but at least the DB connectivity ones..like testing OCI8.... Regards, Andrey
