Platform Release Engineering Galileo Plan

This document is a work in progress describing the major changes that we would like to make during the Galileo release cycle.

Built for speed, faster tests we need

  • Ok green.gif Run build with 1.6 vm to take advantage of compiler performance on multi-core processors Bug 237354
  • Run tests in parallel on several machines to reduce testing time Bug 247320

Everyone builds

  • Provide an releng product download to allow people can replicate our build environment.Bug 247324
  • Invoke builds from web ui authenticated by eclipse committer rights Bug 247332
  • Make build scripts more modular to allow shorter test runs bug 247330

Stability

  • Error.gif Mentor a new release engineer
  • Error.gifInvestigate generic templates for complex build changes such as adding a new port and packaging. Bug 247334
  • Error.gifImplement prebuild validators Bug 64797
  • Error.gifImplement code coverage tools Bug 241254

Further leverage p2 and enhancements to PDE build


Blue sky ideas

  • incremental build from p2 repository
  • compile and sign at foundation, package locally, depends on availability of the eight vms we use
  • Evaluate if platforms, or zips can be removed from the build, with scripts to build with p2
  • Allow developers to contribute machines for testing
  • RSS feeds for performance tests, JUnit tests
  • Incremental test results
  • Expose all our infrastructure to open source

Milestone Plan

We are still working on allocating resources to the milestone plan.

M3

  • Ok green.gif Run build with 1.6 vm Bug 237354 Kim Moir, IBM
  • Progress.gif Evaluate common failures determine how they can be mitigated. Rewrite if necessary. Bug 247327 Kim Moir, IBM
  • JUnit 4 in test framework Bug 153429 Kim Moir, IBM
  • Make build scripts more modular to allow shorter test runs bug 247330 Kim Moir, IBM
  • Progress.gif 3.4.x performance baselines Bug 245693

M4

  • Further leverage p2 and enhancements to PDE build introduced in M3. See PDE Build Galileo plan - for example, parallel compilation and fetch using p2.

M5

Glass.gif Needs some investigation

Progress.gif Work in progress

Ok green.gif Bug fixed / Feature added
