Thanks Dirk.

I still need to ask then; wiki sounds that pre-release test is capable
of test with release repository by leaving out the version. Is it not
true then?
http://wiki.ros.org/bloom/Tutorials/PrereleaseTest#Test_a_package_that.27s_never_been_released_yet
# yes I contributed to part of the wiki page with limited understanding...

If the answer to my question above is yes, then is the only available
pre-release test on buildfarm for packages that haven't been released
is development test? I'd just like to clarify that.

Thanks again in advance,

Isaac

#1 By the way is svn not acceptable for devel test? I've asked it awhile ago.
