Summary:
Be smart when running tests

Detailed description
90% of the changes in TESTFLAGS in oasis test suite are restricting tests run to the last one which was failing. This task can be done automatically by ounit itself: * run once * write tests that failed + their timing in a file ounit.state / _build/ounit.state * let the user fix the test * read ounit.state * run tests with the one failing first and the fastest * allow to run all tests in level + 1 as well (may code this possibilty in >::) * if one the previous fail, skip the remaining

Message
Date: 2013-09-30 00:39 Sender: Sylvain Le Gall Close with OUnit v2.0.0. We reorder the test to get the failing one first and skipped the other if still failing.
Date: 2013-03-02 22:13 Sender: Thomas Wickham Is it really "smart" to focus on only one test ? True thing, we want our test to pass, obviously. True also that waiting a dozen of seconds before seeing THE test passing or failing is boring. But more than all, we don't want to broke anything ! I suggest that a smart behavior will be to change the sequence and put the failing tests in first.
