Thanks Igor, I understand that we are limited by time/resources.

Yes, I remember that and I also thought that this testing caught quite a number of bugs back then
but my memory might be distorted (I used it a lot for stress testing of local changes). A big
advantage of CTW is also the reproducibility because there is no dynamically generated code.

Best regards,
