Hello,
VTK merge requests with changes prior to [45c34233](https://gitlab.kitware.com/vtk/vtk/commit/45c34233b5727f393c645da000008d63b5309ec2) might show multiple (~680) VTKPython dashboard failures.
Per Ben, issuing `Do: test --clean` should clean it up.
Best,
Sankhesh

The change is described [here](https://discourse.vtk.org/t/simplification-of-python-modules-and-things-to-watch-for/2251), along with the instruction to do `test --clean` on cdash failures.
To avoid having the problem re-occur, please rebase your MR on master.

Please use the dashboard category. I’ve moved the topic.
