Meeting Details

Please see our public calendar for all upcoming events and meetings.

Our regular team meeting occurs every Thursday @ 9am Pacific

Action Items / Takeaways from Last Week

    • Stephen to delegate removing Beta and Aurora environoments on most nodes; leave them only on one
      • Not done -- someone please take this!
    • marlenac will send info to stephend from Scott Barber, but doesn't have exact prices, know it'll take more than a day
    • 2nd floor computer lab - find home for qa-selenium7 and the Android devices (tegra boards & ics phones) - stephend/raymond
      • Not done -- on the back-burner
    • Stephen to talk to Raymond to get Pivotal tasks for remaining Mozilla.com automation needs
      • Totally done
    • retornam needs to list what needs to be done for [mozilla.com] and put items into Pivotal Tracker or send an email to get what is needed.
    • Add goals for any upcoming projects if you know about ones not on the list. Can update goals list directly & then tell stephend.
    • Help needed: team could help complete the last 1% of automation for Mozillians.
    • If team sees Tobbi online, give him support for working on Mozillians

Discussion Items / Updates

  • Selenium 2.21.0 is ALIVE!
    • http://code.google.com/p/selenium/downloads/list
    • Zac has a pull; needs thorough testing
      • Sorry, I closed the pull because it does not include the required timeout configuration changes. I am currently testing 2.21 locally and will submit a new pull once I'm confident that it is at least as stable as 2.19. (davehunt)
  • Selenium infra update:
    • Folks from https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=741956#c4 should be able to SSH in (see details in the bug; you must be connected to Mozilla-MPT -- this is a new requirement from IT; it will not affect our hosts' abilities to connect to ci.mozilla.org)
      • For the Windows VMs, I recommend using CORD: http://cord.sourceforge.net/. Also note that the username/password should be guessable -- find me if it's not!
    • Who is going to set up the hub and nodes for this? Considering this is for AMO can we just set up WD nodes? Should we just stick to installing Firefox 7 for now as that's what AMO is using at the moment? Should we wait for the outcome of 2.21 testing rather than introduce known stability issues? Does Web QA need assistance from Automation Development? (davehunt)
  • Great job on Socorro, team Ro + Zac; let's get mcom-tests back up + Marketplace coverage in (along with, of course, existing-test fixes for flightdeck, AMO, etc.)
  • Leah created a pull for a 'PageProvider' as a way of delivering the first page object in tests. Leah has had this pull open for a while but we haven't got team/community's thoughts on it yet so I urge you to comment.
  • Review build triggers (davehunt)
    • Arbitrary schedules aren't much value. Where possible tests should only be run when there is value in the results. For example, when a new version of the AUT is deployed, or when the test repository is updated.
      • We have used URL triggers for noticing the the AUT has been updated and this is working well - do more apps need a suitable revision URL? Could someone perform an audit?
      • Due to Jenkins not being public we need to perform SCM polling for checking if the test repositories have been updated. What is a reasonable schedule for this?
    • Is there value in also triggering on an infrequent basis (perhaps once a day) to detect environmental issues?
