Hi there,


Can someone point out as to where I can find the Regression testing
scenarios for Git?

I`m also interested in learning more about how Git is tested before
every [Major] Release.

I would be glad if I can at least get a starting point to explore the
answers to above questions.


Thanks!

All the tests are in the t/ directory.

There is t/README, t/interop/README and t/perf/README.

You might also be interested in https://github.com/chriscool/sharness/
if you want to use a similar test framework.

Best,
