Description
The Travis jobs within a build run in the order in which they're specified in .travis.yml
. This means that the BuddyPress tests run on the oldest version of PHP first (5.3) and the newest version last (7.1). As a general rule, this means the slowest test jobs run first because each subsequent version of PHP is faster than the previous.
This order should be reversed so that when a committer is patiently waiting for a Travis build to complete, they are at least more likely to see unexpected failures earlier than they otherwise would.
