Bug Description
This is not a real bug, I would just like to start a discussion about
what can be done to set up a continuos integration system.
Is there any Jenkins server which can be used?
Another thing which I was thinking is if we have some real tests on
real systems with various MTA such as Postfix/Exim.
I haven't tried it yet but it seems that http://
puppet could really be very nice tools for the job.
And we could then
1. fire up a VM
2. install the different MTAs
3. create some complicated mailing lists and check that everything works correctly
Other ideas?

To post a comment you must log in.
Also to consider is testing with various supported database backends, of which (currently) only SQLite and PostgreSQL are supported, though I would love to get support for MySQL and/or its variants.
I'm not aware of a Jenkins server that's available, but perhaps when the new python.org infrastructure gets built, we could convince them to host one for us.
+1 for this idea in general!
