Well, my findings are a bit muddled, I fear... First off, I'm using the
release candidate, and I don't know (although I probably should) what
SVN version that is.

Secondly, I am seeing differing results when I run the debug tests. The
backupstore tests always fail, but not in a consistent manner. So far
I've run them 4 times, and the results are as follows:

Test 1: 6 failures

FAILURE: Condition [dir.GetAttributesModTime() == 329483209443598LL]
failed at testbackupstore.cpp(1282)
FAILURE: Condition [dir.GetAttributes() == attrtest] failed at
testbackupstore.cpp(1284)
FAILURE: Condition [en->GetName() != uploads[UPLOAD_FILE_TO_MOVE].name]
failed at testbackupstore.cpp(1331)
FAILURE: Condition [en->GetName() != uploads[UPLOAD_FILE_TO_MOVE].name]
failed at testbackupstore.cpp(1331)
FAILURE: Condition [foundCurrent] failed at testbackupstore.cpp(1360)
FAILURE: Condition [foundOld] failed at testbackupstore.cpp(1361)


Test 2: 2 failures

FAILURE: Condition [foundCurrent] failed at testbackupstore.cpp(1360)
FAILURE: Condition [foundOld] failed at testbackupstore.cpp(1361)


Test 3: 6 failures (same as test 1)

FAILURE: Condition [dir.GetAttributesModTime() == 329483209443598LL]
failed at testbackupstore.cpp(1282)
FAILURE: Condition [dir.GetAttributes() == attrtest] failed at
testbackupstore.cpp(1284)
FAILURE: Condition [en->GetName() != uploads[UPLOAD_FILE_TO_MOVE].name]
failed at testbackupstore.cpp(1331)
FAILURE: Condition [en->GetName() != uploads[UPLOAD_FILE_TO_MOVE].name]
failed at testbackupstore.cpp(1331)
FAILURE: Condition [foundCurrent] failed at testbackupstore.cpp(1360)
FAILURE: Condition [foundOld] failed at testbackupstore.cpp(1361)



Test 4:  4 failures

FAILURE: Condition [dir.GetAttributesModTime() == 329483209443598LL]
failed at testbackupstore.cpp(1282)
FAILURE: Condition [dir.GetAttributes() == attrtest] failed at
testbackupstore.cpp(1284)
FAILURE: Condition [en->GetName() != uploads[UPLOAD_FILE_TO_MOVE].name]
failed at testbackupstore.cpp(1331)
FAILURE: Condition [en->GetName() != uploads[UPLOAD_FILE_TO_MOVE].name]
failed at testbackupstore.cpp(1331)


I don't know why these differences in test results occur. Something
timing-related perhaps, but I can't tell what...

Is there some cleanup that should be done prior to each test?

Thanks,
Per
