Killing spawned testing processes doesnt work #64

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
proc_terminate seems to kill the shell which spawned the application, but
not the application itself. This means that tests which spawn infinite
loops, such as in the DemiEval tests, create zombies which kill the
computer's performance.

This has been fixed, both in the test code, (AsyncTest), and in the continuous 
tester
(test/framework/records/loop) providing a good fallback.
