Thank you Marcus.

Is it hard / possible to add test coverage ?


problematic... when testing system level code, you soon run into meta-recursion (e.g. Array is used by the code used for doing
test coverage).  (we should really fix reflection as a concept... but that's more research and not engineering... I should continue with that).

So this would only make sense on a package by package case. But there it can make sense, yes.

What I want to add before test coverage is code-critique style checking.


And Camillo suggested we should set up this nice system for Pharo:

http://speed.pypy.org/

(but this requires fully automated build of the VM from the source repository)

Toon and Camillo are using this for Pinoccio. Which reminds me that the paper is finally available online:
