Yeah, that's true... but as only very few people have those tests set-up it will fail for like 90% of the testers. We want to move to the point that nothing is allowed to fail before we release, so it's definitely not a good point if all DB (not only DBX) tests fail if they're not setup. Does anybody else have an idea?
