The test cases then can use this to decide on how many iterations to run. This patch hands control of parameters that affect all tests to the CI. But number of iterations is a per test thing. What would be the definition of an "iteration"? Something that must be done in a maximum of cycles.. ? This could be something to look at, but it goes beyond this patch. -- David Marchand
