Description Daniela Plascencia 2016-09-30 18:32:43 UTC
Patchtest-oe must be capable of identifying wrong formatted patches before testing them. For patches not complying with the standard, any of the checks will be applied, thus preventing the modules being used by and the test suite itself to fail due to wrong formatted patches.
Comment 1 Daniela Plascencia 2016-10-04 22:29:56 UTC
The fix in bug 9953 also solves this one as we are identifying wrong formatted patches. For those not complying with the standard, the suite will skip all tests being affected by the malformed patch.
