[Zope-dev] Re: [ZODB-Dev] Test Failures

| No idea why it failed for you.  The only thing that rings a bell here is

But, why only the 2.8 tests would fail then? I'll try a 'make clean'
before running the tests and see if it helps.

Looks good to me:

| Almost certainly, yes.  The Transience tests are part of Zope (not part of
| ZODB), and it's in the nature of transient objects that they "go away by
| magic" as time passes.  If "too much" wall-clock time elapses while a
| Transience test is running, failure is expected.

Running all the tests takes 1864 seconds, so I can see it taking too
long :)
