4.5.1 Update

Oliver asks how 4.5.1 is going

• Joanna notes that we are behind schedule
  • There may be a bit of wiggle room on 8/8 deadline
• Joanna notes that builds have been having problems again
  • Linux32 has some lost file issues
  • Chris asked to be informed when a new build was kicked off so he could monitor.

Joanna notes that there are issues w/ stability and w/ integrated agent controller

• There are 3 key defects the team is looking at and hope to fix

Joanna has asked Intel China team to complete some testing concentrating on the Windows side

• Joanna has a note that it has been done but she has not verified yet.

Joanna notes that there are several profiling defects against Eugene

• There is no update on them yet
• They may be candidates for deferral

Joanna has already run a bug deferral list past some consuming products and is no huge red flags are going up.

Paul talks a bit about Test for 4.5.1

• There are some manual test anomolies
  • Root cause was that install instructions were not followed
• Issue with test navigator deleting a test case
  • Paul is checking w/ consumer to see if really need it for 4.5.1. It is looking like deferral is possible.
  • Would prefer to defer integrating the patch because it relates to a sensitive part of code.
• There is a data pool editor issue
  • This one really needs to be in 4.5.1 or will have negative consuming product feedback.
  • Team decided that if paul has a patch can it be put into tree today
  • Paul noted that he can easily rerun tests against this component.
