[PATCH] Make client behavior configurable: drop_caches

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Right now autotest will drop caches between:
 * Test executions
 * Same test iterations

This change turns those into configurable options on
global_config.ini. Default configuration:

[CLIENT]
drop_caches: True
drop_caches_between_iterations: True
