Description Michael Rennie CLA 2009-07-06 11:28:19 EDT 
N20090705-2000 and previous builds

There are hundreds of API tools errors in the nightly builds in the compatibility tests.

It seems that for some reason each of the tests is failing to find a testing API component, which causes the NPE when we try to create the API description.

baseline disposed fixes

This patch fixes up some of the baseline disposed log entries from the test runs.
Comment 2 Michael Rennie CLA 2009-07-13 22:03:40 EDT 
I have yet to reproduce a test failure locally running from the workspace or from the test framework.
Comment 3 Michael Rennie CLA 2009-07-13 22:08:32 EDT

disables tests / tracing

This patch disables the failing tests in HEAD until we can find the problem of the failures and adds in a tonne more tracing to our API description code.
Comment 5 Michael Rennie CLA 2009-07-17 09:50:27 EDT 
marking this bug as depending on bug 275020 as the fix for that bug has a few consistency fixes for our tests / test code.
Comment 6 Michael Rennie CLA 2009-08-06 15:52:21 EDT 
The fix to this bug is in bug 285123, but we will wait for a few more builds / test passes before marking this bug fixed. Moving to 3.6 M2
Comment 7 Michael Rennie CLA 2009-08-12 14:05:45 EDT 
re-enabled the failing tests for the N-build tonight to see how it goes...
Comment 8 Darin Wright CLA 2009-09-08 10:34:34 EDT 
Marking fixed. Tests are passing once again.
Comment 9 Darin Wright CLA 2009-09-08 10:34:48 EDT 
Verified.
