The trouble is that the poll doesn't have a middle ground between "all functionality" and "a few critical things".

A full run of our test suite literally takes months on a cluster of hundreds of CPUs (obviously, there are also faster versions of the tests which are run frequently). While I have a long list of additional test coverage that I would like to add, what we test is much closer to "all functionality" than it is to "a few critical things".




Would you be able to share what type of software it is? I'm curious what takes that long to run


I'm also working on some software which tests a lot of functionality, not just 'a few critical things' but certainly not 'all functionality' either.

I'd say that a lot of good responses would have been in between those two.
