This information is preliminary and subject to change. If you see an error or omission, please feel free to edit it.
Timeouts
As a job owner, it's important that your job not block indefinitely. Please be courteous to other developers and write your tests so that they do not wait forever for manual input. To workaround blocking tests, or to uncover tests which are inadvertently blocking, please ensure you set a timeout on your job so it will kill itself if it runs too long.
Contacts
To allow others to contact you should your build ever be stuck, or for any other reason, you can place default contact information in the Email Notification field.
Additionally, anyone explicitly listed under the Enable Project-based Security ...
... can be fingered to determine their email address by first ssh'ing to build.eclipse.org using your committer ID:
$ finger nickb Login: nickb Name: Nick Boldt n***b****@g****.com
If you do not have access to the job's configure page, you can ssh to build.eclipse.org and look up its config.xml file if you know the job name. For example:
- /opt/users/hudsonbuild/.hudson/jobs/cbi-linuxtools-Galileo
- /opt/users/hudsonbuild/.hudson/jobs/cbi-linuxtools-Galileo/config.xml
