Hi Thomas,

This is not a fair request IMO. We want to avoid wasting everybody's time, including Wojciech's time. Can the bug originator provide the details on the setup to reproduce the failure, please? Thank you!

On a different point, we should probably tweak our autotests to differentiate between logical failures and those failures related to resources not being available, and flag the test result accordingly in the report. For example, if memory allocation fails, the test should be flagged as "Not enough resources" instead of simply "Failed". In the first case, the next step should be fixing the test setup, while in the second case the next step should be fixing the code. What do people think on this?

Regards,
Cristian
