[Desktop 12.10 Topic] Quality,testability for the desktop components

[Sebastien Bacher]

Hey,

The Canonical upstream teams did some good progresses on testing and 
quality this cycle, that's a good step for the Ubuntu Desktop quality, 
we still rely on quite some components from other upstreams though that 
didn't engage into a such process yet though (those who looked at 
gnome-settings-daemon, nautilus, gvfs, etc bugs on launchpad probably 
know what I mean there). I would like to see if we can work on our side 
and with upstream to get those automated tested in some ways.

It would be also nice to see regular run and report of the testsuits for 
other components which already have one (i.e glib, gtk) and some testing 
of their rdepends before upload.

Cheers,
Sebastien Bacher
