Hi Eliot,

Sorry about the slow reply -

Tests that stress the VM:
- Running the complete test suite
- running update to Squeak trunk tip from Squeak 5.0
- recompiling the entire system
- building a Moose image

Having these run automatically by a CI server would be very nice.

What is the success criteria for the tests? Or is it just that the VM doesn't crash?

Are there scripts anywhere for running these tests and checking the results that could be used for reference?

Once upon a time I included the built-in test suite in my build but it didn't have 100% success rate and I was not sure whether that was a problem and how to make a suitable pass/fail decision.
