the Fedora package?

Hi Richard,
I meant just the opposite. However I will also do what you suggest but
this will
result in far less number of bugs (probably around 100).

I want to track which packages *DO NOT* have any tests and later be
able to
focus on creating them (be it working with volunteers, GSoC
participants or
whoever is willing to step up to this task).

And what happens if you create a testing suite for a project but the upstream is unwilling to integrate?
It seems that it would make more sense to do it in cooperation with upstream, thus filing the bug there.
Exactly. However most upstreams who are confronted with bugs telling them "Your package is lacking a testsuite, please add one", without being presented a concrete proposaly will simply close this bug and consider the submitter to be troll.
