Great progress was made at Wineconf last year on getting our test suite closer to always passing on wine, but http://test.winehq.org/data/200801301937/#Wine shows that, according to the results collected from people who run programs/winetest on Wine, twelve DLLs' tests are currently failing. (Let alone the test failures on Windows!) http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9916 also talks about the fact that "make test" shows failures.
I have been providing patches to help the situation on all platforms. I am currently tracking 11 patches that are test related (9 on Windows - mainly Vista, but the directory-based listview failures should be fixed on all platforms, 2 on Wine). These haven't been applied yet because Alexandre went on holiday when I started my campaign against test suite failures.
A few of these patches I have updated and resent as they needed todo blocks adding for Wine.
I also kicked off discussions about different aspects of the test suite failures, but only some of these generated responses.
I am specifically interested in increasing the timeout when running the Wine Test Shell to handle various timeouts (specifically software rendered D3D tests and MSI install tests).
