This page documents the work from https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=516984 : Run Mozmill Tests with buildbot
This is an Auto-tools project and a Q2 goal
Accomplished Work
- reworked patch from bug 516984 so that it would cleanly apply: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/attachment.cgi?id=434790 (March 24, 2010)
- added patch to disable notification: http://k0s.org/mozilla/hg/buildbotcustom/.hg/patches/rev/8ba008fdce67 ; i'm not sure if this is complete or not, but staging instances of buildbot should not email tinderbox or other live recipients
- added patch to allow copying buildbot configuration: http://k0s.org/mozilla/hg/buildbot-configs/rev/aa3ff093fa4b ; useful for making new buildmasters as it clones versus symlinks to a versioned master
- added patch to raise a more verbose exception to diagnose download error: http://k0s.org/mozilla/hg/buildbotcustom/.hg/patches/rev/71b8c045d03a
Outstanding Issues
- Mozmill build fails on download:
Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/jhammel/mozilla/src/buildbot/buildbot/buildbot/process/buildstep.py", line 689, in startStep d.addCallback(self._startStep_2) File "/home/jhammel/mozilla/src/buildbot/lib/python2.6/site-packages/Twisted-9.0.0-py2.6-linux-i686.egg/twisted/internet/defer.py", line 190, in addCallback callbackKeywords=kw) File "/home/jhammel/mozilla/src/buildbot/lib/python2.6/site-packages/Twisted-9.0.0-py2.6-linux-i686.egg/twisted/internet/defer.py", line 181, in addCallbacks self._runCallbacks() File "/home/jhammel/mozilla/src/buildbot/lib/python2.6/site-packages/Twisted-9.0.0-py2.6-linux-i686.egg/twisted/internet/defer.py", line 323, in _runCallbacks self.result = callback(self.result, *args, **kw) --- <exception caught here> --- File "/home/jhammel/mozilla/src/buildbot/buildbot/buildbot/process/buildstep.py", line 712, in _startStep_2 skip = self.start() File "/home/jhammel/mozilla/src/buildbot/buildbotcustom/buildbotcustom/steps/misc.py", line 385, in start url = self.url_fn(self.build) File "/home/jhammel/mozilla/src/buildbot/buildbotcustom/buildbotcustom/process/factory.py", line 6623, in get_fileURL fileURL = build.source.changes[-1].files[0] exceptions.IndexError: tuple index out of range
The patch at http://k0s.org/mozilla/hg/buildbotcustom/.hg/patches/rev/71b8c045d03a reveals build.source.changes is in fact an empty tuple. This is from force build
Outstanding Work
- Add corrections to https://wiki.mozilla.org/Buildbot and linked pages
Long-term Recommendations
These recommendations are hereby recorded for future use. Their need should be assessed before filed as bugs and made actionable.
- Use templates for buildbot-configs: the configurations in http://hg.mozilla.org/build/buildbot-configs are hard-coded for the setup for VMs. Instead, they could be made templates for easy deployment. Cleanup should also be done so that the configurations are more universal and adding new configurations is easy.
