97 If you can't wait 12 hours or so you may want to skip ahead to
98 <xref linkend="bdb-installation"/>. The test suite can take a long time
99 and has a few bugs causing a report of <quote>Regression tests
100 failed</quote>. However, running the test suite is a very exhaustive test
101 of your hardware, perhaps pushing your machine harder (especially disk
102 I/O) than it will ever see during production use. Note that you must have
103 <application>Tcl</application> installed to run the test suite.
