Not currently. Can it be made useful? Should it be removed? >There is a reason the regression test suite has many tests... >"Blacklisting" some of them sounds like a bad thing to do. If 'make quicktest' were actually quick - say could run in 1/10 the current time, it could be used as a smoke test for merge-dance cases. OTOH, running some localized test for the feature or bug you're trying to land might be enough. In any case 'make quicktest' isn't really being honest with us <wink>. We should fix it or remove it. -Barry
