Description Kim Moir CLA 2008-10-23 17:22:55 EDT 
Run JUnit tests on separate machine than build machine.  Of course, this depends on the the availabiliy of hardware at the foundation.
Comment 1 Kim Moir CLA 2008-11-03 18:09:37 EST 
Another possibility would be to use third party cloud computing for the test infrastructure.  Thus the foundation wouldn't have to manage multiple configurations of test machines and all the headaches associated with it....

For example
http://aws.amazon.com/ec2
Comment 2 Nick Boldt CLA 2009-11-27 02:05:38 EST 
Ignoring the ever-pressing need for more hardware... this is resolved IMHO.

See http://wiki.eclipse.org/Common_Build_Infrastructure/Testing

Closing.
