Re: Working tests seem to exist for epcr



Hi Andreas,
Thanks for looking into this and sending the guide about packages. 
I saw the CI page for epcr, and I have a follow-up query about the same - I had added autopkgtests to altree the other day, and I've now added to loki as well. So, can CI pages be built for these packages now? If yes, how?
Also, is it that only after the CI pages are built, should the respective bugs (#909708 and #909710) be marked closed? Or is it enough if the tests are working on my local machine, and can I close them right away?

Thanks a lot for your help.
Pranav

Thanks for the short introduction here and the interest into the Debian
Med GSoC / Outreachy project.

Ahhh, perfectly correct.  We simply forgot to close this bug in Debian
changelog the string "Closes: #909706" (see here[1]).

Exactly.  I'm doing this hereby (in CC).

No, you have properly analysed the situation - which despite beeing
simple is very helpful anyway.

BTW, to check whether the existing tests are running nicely you could
have checked here the CI page of the package[2].  I'm just mentioning
this since it might be helpful for other tests you might develop in
future.

Thanks to you for spotting this issue
