[Scons-dev] SCons COM vs COMSTR tests

[William Blevins]

Team,

I was looking at some tests and they seems to overlap in such a way that 1
is subsumed by the other.

For example, test/Java/RMICOM.py and test/Java/RMICOMSTR.py are identical
except that one sets only the RMICOM variable and the other sets both
RMICOM and RMICOMSTR (which of course means that one has extra stuff in the
stdout). It seems to me that RMICOMSTR subsumes the other, and only 1 test
has value.

Having a lean test harness is a bonus. Tests take a long time to run
(especially if we are running redundant ones).

V/R,
William
