Feed daml test with a separately built dar

It’s a biased opinion, but to me it would be clearer if daml test would only test, and not build and test. Or at least it could have an option to work with a DAR built previously with daml build, this would not break existing infrastructure built on current behaviour.

I arrived this when tried to specify the DAR location, possible with daml build, but impossible with daml test.

Sounds promising! than as far as I understand, daml test will be obsoleted

Just to be clear, I don’t expect this to happen anytime soon and even if we get script to the point where it can replace all scenario usecases, we will keep it around for quite a while. But if we spent effort there, I’d rather spent it on getting us to the point where you don’t have to switch between script and scenarios than on improving scenarios which can never cover all script use cases.

Sounds promising! than as far as I understand, daml test will be obsoleted, so let’s close this too 😃 Feel free to reopen if you see value keeping this.
