Jython BuildBot
Posted by Tim Freund Tue, 12 Dec 2006 06:49:00 GMT
We have put up a preliminary BuildBot instance for the Jython project. The following things remain on the TODO list before we'd call it "production":
- Run the unit tests. Currently the process only builds.
- Add an extra step to one of our slaves to upload successful builds to http://jython.achievewith.us/nightly
- Set up the master to watch the subversion repository. Builds are currently run once every 24 hours, but it would be nice to kick off a build after each commit as well.
- Style the waterfall to better match jython.org
We will soon be seeking volunteers to host build slaves, but in the mean time you can check out the progress via the built-in waterfall display.
I would be happy to host a build slave. What platform do you need?
Great! We can use almost any platform at this point since I would like to see the builds run on several JVM versions on each platform.
For instance, we have linux slaves running 1.3 and 1.4, but no 1.5 or 1.6.
We also have OSX, but only on Java 1.4
We will have Windows XP with 1.2 and 5 covered once one of our volunteers gets back in the office, but an XP machine running 1.4 would be great. Our current 1.4 slave is my old laptop, so I would like to retire that from build duty.
So just take your pick, and email your OS and JVM choice to me at tim *at* digital-achievement *dot* com, then I will send you connection information.
