Project Name
Mozharness
Project Description
Imagine that we did not have to touch the Mozilla buildbot factories but instead we maintained a bunch of script for all the different jobs they run?
It would be good if we could create scripts that told a machine how to generate an optimized build, a debug build, unit tests, talos runs, locale repackages. If you look in the tools/scripts repo you can see that we have a simple shell file to do this for the fuzzing automation. The buildbot factory that calls it is called mozharness and it is very simple.
mozharness is a single factory that buildbot can run; within mozharness, a script is selected for a specific job. This moves the job-definition responsibility out from buildbot; by separating the pieces, you avoid excessive complexity in buildbot and also open up the possibility of running mozharness manually (e.g., by a developer, to test something) ment Initial contacts: Armenzg

Project Details
- Objective: Improve efficiency while lowering the entry level knowledge required from new developers to get involved
- requirements: pylint and coverage
- ./unit.sh to run unit test coverage
- scripts directory contain scripts
- documentation is required
- API is changing - WIP in https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=574473
- scripts written in python
- separate framework - which buildbot calls
What are we building?
- Profile Build
- Debug Build - For OS (Mac, Linux, Windows, 32/64 etc)
- Packaged Test - contains test for the build
- Tests - Mochitests, Reftests, xpcshell, ... 10 in total
- l10n builds
The problem that mozharness solves:
- buildbot uses a "factory" to run a job
- there are (becoming) too many different "factories" within buildbot

Project Plan
Goals for each release:
hgtool port
- Create the MercurialVCS class that is responsible for basic hg operations (clone, pull, push) each with an individual method
- Implement all hgtool actions as individual methods in MercurialVCS. At this point MercurialVCS() should be importable (useful) for Mozharness
- lib/source/mercurial.py should be callable via shell with parameters matching each method (ie: ./mercurial.py checkout [src]?)

0.1 through 0.3 will have a progressive approach.
