Ask HN: What's your hardware capacity dedicated to test

from the ask-hn dept.

Hi all, For those of you who uses dedicated machines for testing (e.g. jenkins workers, gitlab runners), what is your hardware capacity? How much load are they going through? We are in the process of revisiting this capacity and we would love to know if there is some industry standard or best practices (number of cpu core per dev, ...).

Because we don't have the same costs as in the US (university, healthcare, housing, ...). For instance, the cost to attend courses in a good university in Belgium is at most 835 euro/year [0]. (This does not include textbooks)

In the EU, the market is much more fragmented because of the many languages we speak.

The scenarios can be the following: timestamp are problem as soon as a drive is mapped from two different os without synced clock (happened to me with a virtualbox share). Taking care of compiler flags is important as you don't want to mix a debug build with a performance build for binary compatibility reasons.

What about performances versus minisat/glucose/lingeling/... Do you plan to parallelize it? If so, using which technique
