Generally, when making a change it's a case of "has the set of failing regression tests changed" rather than "are any regression tests failing". The ones failing above all look familiar. One thing you can do is look at the *.stderr.diff and *.stdout.diff files. In a lot of cases, you'll see it's just a small variation from what's expected Hopefully that will be reassuring! Nick |
