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)

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

  • 16-Feb-2008
    • There will be no release this week, since I have been working on the Buildbot and Cairo project
    • It seems that Adam has been setting up the first node and the slaves during this week. I will probably have an account next week.
  • 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 svn:Seneca Hera Try Server - automated-testing integration an I am modifying the master.cfg file to meet the purposes; It is based on buildbot-configs/testing/unittest/
    • I might set up this Saturday my own try server at home
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 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 (Sess10 and 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
  • I will add the instructions on how to set up a Buildbot try server when I do it at my house
  • The image on the side shows the classes that are defined in the mozbuild.py which are later on used as Buildsteps on the master.cfg file
