View source for Add to Try Server Automated Testing Support

== Introduction ==
We are trying to add to a Try Server, that will be set up at Seneca, automated testing support (TUnit (make check), mochitest, reftests, crashtest)

* My blog's label explaining my updates is this: [http://armenzg.blogspot.com/search/label/buildbot%20automated%20testing%20integration (armenzg)Buildbot automated testing integration]
* My code so far is in this repository: [http://svn2.assembla.com/svn/Seneca_Hera_Try_Server_Setup/automated-testing/ svn:Seneca Hera Try Server - automated-testing integration]

== People ==
* Armen Zambrano G. (armenzg) #seneca channel
* People from Mozilla helping me: Rob Campbell, Robert Helmer, Ben Hearsum, Robert Sayre, Mike Shaver, Adam Delyea and Dave Humphrey

== News ==
* 1-Feb-2008
** Since I could not wait for the Seneca Hera Try Server to be ready, I decided to set up buildbot on my laptop and so far is working

* 29-Jan-2008
** SERVER NEWS: The main OS (CentOS 5.1 and Windows 2003 Server) are installed. Once they are configured we will duplicate them to the rest of the nodes.
** Soon the server will be completely running and we will have access to it
** I have added a repository [http://svn2.assembla.com/svn/Seneca_Hera_Try_Server_Setup/automated-testing/ svn:Seneca Hera Try Server - automated-testing integration] an I am modifying the master.cfg file to meet the purposes; It is based on [http://lxr.mozilla.org/mozilla/source/tools/buildbot-configs/testing/unittest/ buildbot-configs/testing/unittest/]
** I might set up this Saturday my own try server at home
[[Image:Browsing mozbuild(py).jpeg|thumb|mozbuild.py and the test suites classes defined]]
* 18-Jan-2008
** We are waiting for the Buildbot Farm to be set up at Seneca
** At this point I have been able to run "make check" tests and mochitests. Explained in blog how to do this
** Read Buildbot manual, discovered that I have to write some Build Steps but there's some configuration done by the community (check links section)


== 0.5 release ==
=== Steps ===
NOTE: I assume you can build mozilla firefox. This steps are to build on Linux (my flavour is Ubuntu7.1)
 # sudo apt-get install buildbot
 # buildbot --version
 Buildbot version: 0.7.5
 Twisted version: 2.5.0
 # buildbot create-master ~/BuildbotMaster
 # buildbot create-slave ~/Buildslaves localhost:9989 slave1 slavepassword1
 # Untar this [http://matrix.senecac.on.ca/~azambran/mozilla/buildbot-config/BuildbotMasterArmen0.5.tar.gz BuildbotMasterArmen0.5.tar.gz file] in your ~/BuildbotMaster directory
 # buildbot start ~/BuildbotMaster
 # buildbot start ~/Buildslaves/
 # open your web browser and open this URL http://localhost:8010, you should see the results
NOTE 2: There is more explanation in these two posts ([http://armenzg.blogspot.com/2008/02/armenzg-sess10-buildbot-initial-set-up.html Sess10] and [http://armenzg.blogspot.com/2008/02/armenzg-sess11-how-to-set-up-buildbot.html Sess11]
NOTE 3: The only way for me to assure that these steps works for everyone, I would have to try it from a clean install of Ubuntu

=== Info ===
* You can see which tasks get done at the bottom of this page
* <strike>I will add the instructions on how to set up a Buildbot try server when I do it at my house</strike>
* The image on the side shows the classes that are defined in the [http://svn2.assembla.com/svn/Seneca_Hera_Try_Server_Setup/automated-testing/mozbuild.py mozbuild.py] which are later on used as Buildsteps on the [http://svn2.assembla.com/svn/Seneca_Hera_Try_Server_Setup/automated-testing/master.cfg master.cfg] file
