Tests that stress the VM:
- Running the complete test suite
- running update to Squeak trunk tip from Squeak 5.0
- recompiling the entire system
- building a Moose image

Having these run automatically by a CI server would be very nice.

What is the success criteria for the tests?

The success criterion is that they all succeed. By extension this implies that the vm doesn't crash.

Or is it just that the VM doesn't crash?

Are there scripts anywhere for running these tests and checking the results that could be used for reference?

Ask on the list of folks like Fabio Niephaus.

Once upon a time I included the built-in test suite in my build but it didn't have 100% success rate and I was not sure whether that was a problem and how to make a suitable pass/fail decision.
