"Test Tuesday"

markI'd like to propose that this coming Tuesday we spend the day doing things to fix tests. ![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
szabgab has done a lot of work on our tests to make them actually run, but they're noisy (with warnings) and some of them are skipped. We should work on improving that.
Testing should really be part of what we do every time we upload a patch to Bugzilla (and we are talking about adding a 'i-ran-the-tests' flag to patches) and not just something we look at on a particular day -- but we have to start somewhere.
So, those of you who want something to do, I challenge you to find a test that isn't working and make it work. You can comment here if you want to claim some of the tests.
Also acceptable: adding new tests!
But for now, focusing on fixing the ones we have is probably more bang for the buck. Up to you, though.
