82 I was wrong about it. I am moving to a new system. And I see the test
\r
83 pass on one system and fail on another. So it is not related to running
\r
84 emacs tests inside screen. At the moment, I have no idea why it behaves
\r
85 differently on the two systems. Both are Debian unstable (one is
\r
86 current another 2 weeks old). Could it be some extra emacs packages
\r
87 installed? I know notmuch disables system and user init files, but
\r
88 perhaps it is not enough?

\r
94 Nevertheless, I believe running emacs tests inside screen is a
\r
95 requirement for doing complex UI tests. For example, `window-end'
\r
96 function behaves differently when there is no emacs frame. Of course,
\r
97 it does not have to be screen, we may use any other similar tool
\r
98 (e.g. tmux, dtach). We may even use a dummy X server. But screen seems
\r
99 to be the best option.
\r
101 I see no problem with not running emacs tests on systems which do not
\r
102 have screen. After all, emacs is a UI. Core tests would run fine as
\r
105 BTW there were patches to support tmux (or maybe it was dtach). IIRC
\r
106 the consensus was that supporting it does not worth complicating test
\r
107 lib. I think this can be reconsidered if it turns out that many users
\r
108 do not have screen, but do have tmux. But you never know if the
\r
109 patches are not applied. They have been around for several months, I
\r
110 doubt you would suddenly get feedback now.
