How about extending it for regression testing wine with a set of windows programs? This could at least test for crashes. You could add automatic screen shots to get some of the functionality testing done too.
The screenshot testing is a considerably more difficult, and really needs application support to do it nicely.

Originally posted by Michael View PostIt's all open-source, but this module is just not something you can "just run". First you need to create a build script for whatever you wish to test, then module-setup bisect option to set all of the options, etc. Documentation for it will come once everything has been stabilized and new features added in. Of course, normal phoronix-test-suite is extremely easy to use and free.

@Michael
Why there are ia32-libs "needed" in PTS while I'm using 64bit OS (Kubuntu 9.10)?
When I wanted to install pgbench test, PTS wanted my password to install ia32-libs. I typed it and then, there was such error:
sudo: apt-get -y --ignore-missing install ia32-libs: command not found
however test is installed and working, but every time I want to run it, it displays this:
The following dependencies will be installed:
- ia32-libs
This process may take several minutes.
sudo: apt-get -y --ignore-missing install ia32-libs: command not found

@kraftman:
Some of the tests (particularly some of the games) require some of the ia32-libs, so I just added that check on there if running 64-bit to always fetch those 32-bit libs. However, for Ubuntu 9.10 and others where it is no longer present, I will make a workaround.Michael Larabel
