While you can set up and cron patchy-merge-staging,
patchy-test-patches still needs 'human' interaction (reg tests).
Perhaps this computer could be better spent doing other LP related
things Donate cycles for devs for instance via SSH - David might be
appreciative of that.

I've run patchy-test just now for the three patches outstanding this
morning. It's no a big deal, I've just never got round to running the
patchy-test scripts (well since the scripts were very first created
when I had trouble understanding them), so don't worry about patches
David now, I'll pick up the slack here.

Patchy-merge already runs on my box pretty seamlessly and I can run
patchy-test over coffee most mornings now I know what is involved.

I'll also look at updating the CG instructions because while it is
relatively simple, a non-dev like me always has trouble, initially,
getting all my ducks in a row with regard to setting up LP source
code, getting patchy downloaded and configured and then running her.
