Learning path: Long-duration and high-resource testing #14

Open tmbgreaves opened 5 years ago

tmbgreaves commented 5 years ago

Research software often requires testing which is far more resource-intensive and longer duration than from normal systems and application software. This is often in the form of a cut-down version of a real-world operational problem, and generally needs to be run periodically but not on a per-commit basis.

Provide some examples of how to implement this in a cloud testing environment, along with cost and archival considerations.
