Hello everybody,

there have been questions and posts regarding the state of the testing framework in the Galaxy ToolSheds lately.
It is currently having some hiccups and does not perform reliably. We are very sorry about that and are working on a solution.

I would like to accent that the Galaxy Team perceives the testing framework as an important part of the ToolShed and will continue to support and evolve it in order to provide a tool that the tool developer can rely upon.

thanks

Martin, Galaxy Team

Hello Peter C

Thanks - I guess there are some issues still to resolve then. I'll watch
these threads and wait until the framework is (hopefully) fixed before
worrying about it again.

Best wishes

Peter
