Goals Overview

• Q1 2012: https://intranet.mozilla.org/QA/Q12012_QAgoals#QA_Automation_Services_Goals

Please mark topics which need to be discussed in the meeting as bold

Issues / Blockers

• No updates

Remote Mechanism to trigger Mozmill tests for Firefox releases (Geo)

• No updates

CI system for daily and l10n Firefox Builds (Henrik)

• Dynamic job execution requests per node group has been implemented. Means the Pulse consumer can trigger tests on specific platforms given the config file.
• Have to find a solution to share shell code between Windows and Mac/Linux without having to duplicate the testruns for those platforms. Possible solution could be something like XShell.
• Readme has been updated to allow other to dive into the project
• Investigation of PulseBuildMonitor for easier handling of Pulse notifications

Mozmill 2.0 support for Automation Scripts (Henrik)

• Received feedback from Henrik - new plan to drop 1.5 support for the new branch of mozmill-automation

Data Validation Method for Mozmill Dashboard (DavidB)

• Will be finished later today

MemChaser

• We now support the new GC/CC API by listening to their observer notifications
• All GC/CC related information is now passed through to the log file and the main module. The widget itself extracts the wanted parts now. Would be a first step for the template support.
• Log file entries are now individual entries for GC, CC, and memory usage. This was a request from JS devs to better parse the content
• The widget does show tooltips for all elements now!
• Circular buffer support will hopefully land soon
• Still on track with another release around Apr 3rd
