** Updated wiki page
** Reftests was not running properly (it timed out - [http://hera.senecac.on.ca:8010/builders/lin-test/builds/42/steps/reftest/logs/stdio stdio] - exit code -1 after 1200secs)
** Changed DISPLAY to :2 and [http://hera.senecac.on.ca:8010/builders/lin-test/builds/45 build 45] shows that we got '''GREEN''' with reftest
** I have to add cronjob to run '''perl processchange.pl''' every 2 mins
** There are 2 linux slaves on vmlinux1.hera
** To upload a patch you must use an LDAP account (I have to investigate this)
* 15-Apr-2008
** '''The try server with unit tests runs properly'''
** Forked on tryserver account, sendchange.cgi and sendchange-ui.pm
** Forked on buildmaster account, processchanges.pl and download.log
** All of the previous files have been copied with suffix '''_test'''
** Created on tryserver and buildmaster the folder '''"patches_test"'''
* 12-Apr-2008
** We can now run the Unit Tests on '''vmlinux1.hera''' which is a virtual machine using the [http://wiki.mozilla.org/ReferencePlatforms/BuildBot#Steps_already_completed_on_the_CentOS_5_Image CentOS 5 image]
** We needed a DISPLAY to display in the unit tests, I set on the steps the value DISPLAY=:0
** We needed to start an X server; I found the way to do it was '''startx'''(maybe xstart, not sure), which started the desktop environment. Used '''ps -ef | grep X''' to find out.
** There is '''X :0''' (started by root), '''Xvnc :1''' and '''Xvnc :2'''
* 21-Mar-2008
** Access to the [http://hera.senecac.on.ca:8010 waterfall view of Hera's buildbot] and force a build by selecting [http://hera.senecac.on.ca:8010/builders/lin-test lin-test] link that shows you the builder's status
** When forcing a build I do not get immediate builds
** The tests are not running properly ('''Error: no display specified''')
** I do not know why do I see the code been build with '''gmake'''
** Links to see some of the forced builds I did: [http://hera.senecac.on.ca:8010/builders/lin-test/builds/13 #13] [http://hera.senecac.on.ca:8010/builders/lin-test/builds/14 #14] [http://hera.senecac.on.ca:8010/builders/lin-test/builds/15 #15] [http://hera.senecac.on.ca:8010/builders/lin-test/builds/16 #16] [http://hera.senecac.on.ca:8010/builders/lin-test/builds/17 #17]
* 18-Mar-2008
** Granted access to the Hera server
* 16-Feb-2008
** There will be no release this week, since I have been working on the [[Buildbot and Cairo]] project
** Read Buildbot manual, discovered that I have to write some Build Steps but there's some configuration done by the community (check links section)
== Releases =='''NOTE: I did not work on this project for a month but instead I worked on the Cairo project'''<blockquote>=== Release Apr. 9th ===* You can upload a patch through [http://hera.senecac.on.ca/tryserver/cgi-bin/sendchange_test.cgi sendchange_test.cgi]. You can also upload another .mozconfig, which overwrites default .mozconfig. Please specify the proper patch level (we suggest to create diffs from mozilla/ and select 0 as the patch level)* Wait for a couple of minutes and refresh [http://hera.senecac.on.ca:8010/] until you see your build running* I would like to show the steps to make everything happen in your machines but I have not setup this server. Assuming we were in the same environment/setup:<blockquote>==== Steps ====How to setup a tryserver ([http://wiki.mozilla.org/Build:TryServer:Installing])<br />'''Setting up the buildmaster''' # cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs-mirror.mozilla.org:/cvsroot co -d tryserver mozilla/tools/buildbot-configs/tryserver # cd tryserver(This brings '''env.py''', '''tryserver/steps.py''' and '''unittest/steps.py''' with others) # cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs-mirror.mozilla.org:/cvsroot co -d buildbotcustom mozilla/tools/buildbotcustom # cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs-mirror.mozilla.org:/cvsroot co -d processor mozilla/webtools/buildbot-try/processchanges.pl # mv processor/processchanges.pl . # rm -rf processor# TBA - IN HERE TO BE ADDED STEP TO CHECK OUT MASTER.CFG </blockquote>=== Release Apr. 5th ===* Nothing to release, I have only been able to run build with tests (with warnings) in my designated BRANCH of slaves* The form to upload a test to the tests branch has been created=== Release Mar.21st ===* Blog post about setting the automated tests on Hera - [http://armenzg.blogspot.com/2008/03/armenzg-sess16-automated-testing-on.html armenzg: Sess16 - Automated testing on Hera]* The files that have been modified in Hera are: master.cfg (to add the steps to do the tests), mozbuild.py(contains classes that group few steps into one and does more intelligent steps), mozconfig-linux-tests(which contains the .mozconfig for the lin-test builder) and env.py (which contains MozEnvironments['centos'] environment variables)* Read about some errors encountered in the NEWS section in this page === 0.5 release ===This release was meant to just allow buildbot to run tests steps after a build. In Hera should do the same and also allow the "try-server" way.==== Steps ====
NOTE: I assume you can build mozilla firefox. This steps are to build on Linux (my flavour is Ubuntu7.1)
# sudo apt-get install buildbot
NOTE 3: The only way for me to assure that these steps works for everyone, I would have to try it from a clean install of Ubuntu

=== Info ===
* You can see which tasks get done at the bottom of this page
* <strike>I will add the instructions on how to set up a Buildbot try server when I do it at my house</strike>
* The image on the side shows the classes that are defined in the [http://svn2.assembla.com/svn/Seneca_Hera_Try_Server_Setup/automated-testing/mozbuild.py mozbuild.py] which are later on used as Buildsteps on the [http://svn2.assembla.com/svn/Seneca_Hera_Try_Server_Setup/automated-testing/master.cfg master.cfg] file
