Architecture

Overview:

  • Talos creates build
  • Talos runs a test
  • Sends data from test to:
    • bulk.cgi - for multiple data points
    • collect.cgi - for 1 data point
  • bulk.cgi or collect.cgi input into mysql db
  • graphs.mozilla.org/graphs.html
    • displays a line graph of the data over time
  • Single point on graph is an average(ish) of the tests on that day
