Taskit tests do not run on latest Pharo6 #20

Closed guillep closed 5 years ago

guillep commented 8 years ago

Tests now track the creation of processes. So:

they kill all processes created during a test run (including the global worker processes that are created lazily)
they hold strong references to processes, so we cannot correctly test wether processes are collected or not

guillep commented 8 years ago

The issue fixes test timeouts due to killing the global worker. Still an issue has to be integrated in Pharo to fix the second problem: https://pharo.fogbugz.com/f/cases/19087/Tracking-of-processes-during-test-run-should-not-keep-processes-strongly
