Correct. I never got the 'bdb' tests to complete. Personally, I put that 
down to a BerkleyDB problem rather than any issue with SQLite - I may be 
wrong though.

I only tested SQLite through Subversion, so the level of testing I have 
given SQLite is only that part that is exercised by Subversion. If you 
think that this tests a significant proportion of SQLite then it might 
not be worth getting the SQLite test suite to work under Cygwin. 
Conversely, if you think Subversion uses only a minority of the SQLite 
functionality then it is probably worth continuing your work on the test 
suite.

It depends on how much of SQLite you think is exercised by Subversion.

Ooo go on then - on the understanding that this is a one-off and I'm not 
running hours of tests for each SQLite release ;-) More seriously 
though, I can only test SQLite through Subversion, and I have no feel 
for how much of SQLite that would be testing. If you're happy with that 
then send me a URL.
