What we have in tools/regression are regression tests but the main problem we still don't have a unified way to write them and no infrastructure to run and report results. E.g. at the moment you can't cd /usr/src/tools/regression/ && make. Perhaps we just need to steal NetBSD's bits until we invent something better. Btw, there is an item in the project ideas list: http://www.freebsd.org/projects/ideas/#p-regression -- Maxim Konovalov
