[Gluster-infra] [Gluster-devel] Recent regression failures

[Amar Tumballi]

Can we have a separate test case to validate for all the basic necessity
for whole test suite to pass? That way the very first run will report an
error in the setup and we can fix it faster, instead of waiting for the
failure which is a setup issue after 3-4hrs ?
