We recently turned on branch-level testing for Drupal 7 core for PHP 5.5 and 5.6 (MySQL).

However, I had to turn it off today, since they always fail with a CI error.

Drupal 7 core tests themselves pass fine, as you can see from this result where a no-op patch was uploaded: https://www.drupal.org/node/2656548#comment-11363217

But if you try to run them as branch tests, everything explodes. Here are links to the console output from the branch tests results:
https://dispatcher.drupalci.org/job/php5.5_mysql5.5/3238/console
https://dispatcher.drupalci.org/job/php5.6_mysql5.5/1163/console

There are a lot of errors in there that look environment-related, but I'm not sure what they mean.

Somehow, those branch tests are feeding a --dburl argument. I'm out the next 5 days or so, so it'll be in this state for a bit.

OK. No huge rush :)

pretty sure we fixed this a long time ago.

Actually I know why this was happening. php 5.6 and 5.7 branch tests of d7 core were telling jenkins to use simpletest and not simpletestd7. Recently, this week, I had repaired that in another issue.

Yup, I just reenabled testing on commit for PHP 5.5 and 5.6 on Drupal 7 core and it seems to work now. Thanks!
