[infinispan-dev] test number variations

[Sanne Grinovero]

Hi all,

I just noticed the number of tests reported by CI varies significantly
across builds.

I'm not referring to the number of failures or errors, but the total
number of tests executed; for example, it seems the last build had 249
less than the build from yesterday.

It just happens that we have nice graphs to look at, and some are rock-stable:

while others are rock-as-mountains ??

Is anyone having a reassuring explanation?

Cheers,
Sanne
