Description

A regression is reported, but it is working for you, developers are always -EBUSY and it feels the technical debts just increases. In the open-source world it is hard to get usage data back from users to choose which bug to prioritize. Also, other developers are worried about their use cases and they don't care much if they broke yours (or maybe they just don't have the hardware to test it). Annoying, isn't it?

In this talk we will check the benefits of pre-merge tests, what Marge bot is and how the Marge workflow is working well with Mesa3D project, avoiding regressions to even being accepted and increasing your confidence to the community.
