So while the translators are busy updating Wine's translations, what
better time than a freeze for developers to fix Wine's conformance
tests, particularly on the new WineTestBot:
http://newtestbot.winehq.org
It does not have as many VMs as the old one but it does have some
interesting new configurations:
* Two Windows 8 VMs: 32 and 64 bits. These have a lot of failures.
* A Windows 7 VM with IE 10 (and one with IE 9 for comparison).
* A Vista VM configured for Arabic, a right-to-left language.
There's also a Japanese Windows 7 VM.
* Two VMs with no sound card (the 64-bit Vista and Windows 2008 ones).
These new configurations have uncovered quite a few test failures. But
the more traditional configurations have some test failures too which is
annoying and warrants investigation to figure out what's wrong:
otherwise there will be trouble when patches have to go through the new
WineTestBot.
So I'm hoping some kind souls (or bored developers) will take it onto
themselves to chime in and fix some of these test failures, or figure
out what is causing them.
Here are some known issues:
* Bug 24631 - listview NM_HOVER tests sometimes fail
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=24631
* Bug 33718 - comctl32:propsheet Add button test failure
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=33718
* Bug 33719 - comctl32:propsheet custom window proc test failure
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=33719
You can also find test results from the new WineTestBot on the WineTest
site: look for tags starting with 'newtb-'.

And for more information on the VMs configuration and some other known
test failures go to this Wiki page:
http://wiki.winehq.org/WineTestBotVMs
Note that the VMs are missing some Windows dlls (atl100, localspl,
msvcp100, qmgr). Information on the best way to get those is welcome.
