Roundtable

• TBD

Goals Overview

• https://wiki.mozilla.org/QA/Automation#Goals

Project Updates

Puppet for Mozmill CI (Henrik, Andreea, Andrei)

• Current goal status:
  • Patch for adding the mozauto user and enabling the X environmnet has been landed for Ubuntu. A kickstart works like a charm and the machine directly boots into our os wide environment. Testing and additions for OS X upcoming.
  • Started work on the Java and Flash player updates.
  • Henrik will also concentrate on other requirements for Jenkins machines (git, virtualenv, pip package mirroring, ...)
• Notes
  • TBD

TPS continuous integration (Henrik, Cosmin)

• Current goal status:
  • Initial Jenkins setup has been done including work for plugins and available nodes
  • Closed the following issues:
    • Add plain Jenkins support #22
    • Add necessary Jenkins plugins #26
    • Add TPS-CI production nodes #27
  • Next is the landing of the required jobs for tps testing, the pulse script, implementing the account creation
• Notes
  • TBD

Automation of important tests for Desktop QA (Daniel, Mihaela)

• Current goal status:
  • Geolocation tests are under review
• Notes
  • TPS tests were reprioritized and scheduled for Q3

Automation Trainings (Andreea, Cosmin)

• Current goal status:
  • Completed
• Notes
  • Received feedback, we will try to accommodate the sessions in different week days and to follow up more with the contributors
  • Also we might want to consider live sessions

Mozmill for Marionette (Andrei, Andreea)

• Current goal status:
  • bug 1023790 - Enhance manifestparser for manifest files to provide a "parent" link
    • There's a problem I'm now facing with inherited DEFAULT values. Since we're passing a path for server-root, the path is relative to the master manifest.ini file... not sure how to solve this.
  • bug 754847 - Replace local httpd.js web server with wptserve
    • There is a functional patch, but we're blocked by bug 1023790. We can skip this dependency and for dev purposes always pass in --server-root=%path% as a cli option.
  • bug 1028856 - Prepare mozmill-tests for the new webserver
    • This will require relative small changes (mostly set the server root on the main manifest file) + small changes in a few tests (where the folder was declared differently).
• Notes
  • TBD

Others

• Mozmill (Henrik)
  • No updates
• WebRTC (Nils)
  • B2G tests are hopefully moving from virtual machines to real hardware machines to improve problems related to the speed of the emulator on the virtual machines
  • We will hopefully soon have support for including loopback in ICE for testing purpose
  • It is confirmed now that IPC/e10s code occasionally hands out ports twice
