Everything is out of date, see docs.taskcluster.net for information about the current project.

TaskCluster

Description

TaskCluster is the name for a new task execution framework on to which we intend to move our test CI system. A "task" will typically be a test job, but could be other things as well. Initially, TaskCluster will power the Gaia Shepherd project, but will eventually be expanded to run buildbot jobs and perform other kinds of work as well.
