We are actually explicitly disabling some tests that are part of the `all`

```
./testserver.py -v --noinit --xml=/scratch/jenkins/root/workspace/pynfs-test/xunit-report-v40.xml nfs-lab:/data/nfs all noACC2a noACC2b noACC2c noACC2d noACC2f noACC2r noACC2s noCID1 noCID2 noCID4a noCID4b noCID4c noCID4d noCID4e noCLOSE10 noCLOSE12 noCLOSE5 noCLOSE6 noCLOSE8 noCLOSE9 noCMT1aa noCMT1b noCMT1c noCMT1d noCMT1e noCMT1f noCMT2a noCMT2b noCMT2c noCMT2d noCMT2f noCMT2s noCMT3 noCMT4 noCR12 noLKT1 noLKT2a noLKT2b noLKT2c noLKT2d noLKT2f noLKT2s noLKT3 noLKT4 noLKT6 noLKT7 noLKT8 noLKT9 noLKU10 noLKU3 noLKU4 noLKU5 noLKU6 noLKU6b noLKU7 noLKU8 noLKU9 noLKUNONE noLOCK12a noLOCK12b noLOCK13 noLOCK24 noLOCKRNG noLOCKCHGU noLOCKCHGD noOPCF1 noOPCF6 noOPDG2 noOPDG3 noOPDG6 noOPDG7 noOPEN15 noOPEN18 noOPEN2 noOPEN20 noOPEN22 noOPEN23 noOPEN24 noOPEN26 noOPEN27 noOPEN28 noOPEN3 noOPEN30 noOPEN4 noRENEW3 noRD1 noRD10 noRD2 noRD3 noRD5 noRD6 noRD7a noRD7b noRD7c noRD7d noRD7f noRD7s noRPLY1 noRPLY10 noRPLY12 noRPLY14 noRPLY2 noRPLY3 noRPLY5 noRPLY6 noRPLY7 noRPLY8 noRPLY9 noSATT3d noSATT4 noSATT6d noSATT6r noSATT18 noSEC7 noWRT1 noWRT11 noWRT13 noWRT14 noWRT15 noWRT18 noWRT19 noWRT1b noWRT2 noWRT3 noWRT6a noWRT6b noWRT6c noWRT6d noWRT6f noWRT6s noWRT8 noWRT9
```

However, I don't think it will be a big issue to adjust if suddenly `all` has more tests.
BTW, we have the containerized version as well, which is publicly available. I will write some docu...

podman run -ti --rm -v `pwd`/out:/out dcache/pynfs:0.1  /bin/bash -c "cd /pynfs/nfs4.0; python3 -u ./testserver.py --xml=/out/xunit-report-v40.xml --noinit nfs-lab:/data all; exit 0"

I am happy to share Dockerfile and make it more user friendly :)

Best regards,
   Tigran.
