Would you run GHCs testsuite if you could?

#1

Following a discussion in the #GHC matrix channel, I’m curious to know what the community thinks about this.

Would you run GHCs testsuite (maybe part of it) on either your own system or the system where you compile your production binaries?

What sparked the discussion is that ghcup test ghc already exists, but is largely defunct due to the GHC test bindists having several issues.

As a user of FreeBSD to host my Haskell web applications, I’d definitely be interested.

Yes. And there is ongoing work to make this happen. Or we’ll, I’ve tasked @hsyl20 with it :sweat_smile:
