And I did answer your question by claiming that it's not really a problem when you run tests (in CI) like they should be run. And for manual testing I'm not sure it's all that valuable really. Hence why I didn't end up merging the above with a bit of documentation to explain it. -Daniel > > Peter. > > -----Original Message----- > From: Daniel Vetter [mailto:daniel.vetter@xxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of > Daniel Vetter > Sent: Tuesday, August 2, 2016 3:37 PM > To: Antoine, Peter <peter.antoine@xxxxxxxxx> > Cc: Chris Wilson <chris@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>; > intel-gfx@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > Subject: Re: [I-G-T 3/3] igt/gem_mocs_settings: Reduce the > amount of cascading failures > > On Mon, Aug 01, 2016 at 10:33:17AM +0100, Peter Antoine wrote: > > On Mon, 1 Aug 2016, Chris Wilson wrote: > > > > > On Fri, Jul 29, 2016 at 10:34:36AM +0100, Peter Antoine wrote: > > > > If one of the previous tests fails then the following tests fail. > > > > This patch means that the following tests do not fail when the > > > > previous test fails (for some cases). > > > > > > The problem is just gem_mocs_settings hasn't split its tests up > > > into subtests. > > Chris, > > > > Can you expand?
