noncont_cat_run_test()

(In general, use () when refering to a function, same thing in the 
shortlog).

"the warnings" sounds like I should know about what warning it fails with
but there's no previous context which tells that information. I suggest 
you either use "a warning" or quote the warning it fails with into the 
commit message.

non-contiguous

This looks better than the previous version, thanks.
