PTS 2.2 Bardu Reaches Alpha 2

When it comes to test profiles with PTS 2.2 Alpha 2, the external dependencies data for Fedora and OpenSolaris has been updated. The warsow, gnupg, and build-imagemagick test profiles have all been updated. The aio-stress test profile was added in this release and is a new disk test profile, while bringing the total number of test profiles currently shipping with the Phoronix Test Suite up to 117!
Anyhow, those interested in trying out this latest version of our testing software / automation framework / whatever you want to call it to drive benchmarking on Linux, you can download it at Phoronix-Test-Suite.com. The final release of Phoronix Test Suite 2.2 "Bardu" is due out this November, which will be greeted by PTS Desktop Live 2009.4 "Loderhof" around the same time.
