Asked by Konstantin on 2012-01-05

In what order does sst execute tests in subfolders?
E.g. i have a folder alltests with two subfolders testA and testD with 1 *.py file in each.
and execute the sst with the command: sst-run -d alltests

sst runs testD first and then testA.

Ubuntu 11.10 64bit.

Thank you.

the order is arbitrary, depending on several factors.

SST 0.1.0 does an `os.walk` to gather directories and `os.listdir` to load test cases. No specific order or sorting is enforced... so it is whatever order python's listdir returns filenames from your operating system.

from the os.listdir() docs:
"The list is in arbitrary order"
