from a quick look on their setup, they only have one node, and they are using the global php binary, so no, they are only testing one php version, and I don't think that it would be the snapshot. but that would be cool. :)

Ferenc is right, this is testing against the distro's latest version.

It is sadly not very useful for us, while being informative. To know that something went wrong when a release is already out is too late, let alone when the distros updated their package :)

Sure, this was just to showcase the number of tests that we already run continuously to find regressions in *our* snapshots.

It is a must and it is what we need to do.

We don't have the resources to run such a node on our own. The idea was to provide the test suite of the most recent package releases for such a snaphot testing machine (run by the php group?)

Do you have some time to setup the tests script in a VM? Then we will use what we have already to run php's snapshot and RCs. We will share VMs for 2-3 projects.

I'm going to check with our Jenkins guru, but I'm wondering how such a VM should look like. Should it contain a complete Jenkins instance, or just a checkout of the Horde packages that you would run from your own Jenkins server(s)?
