Mobile/Build/Maemo Running Talos

Jump to navigation Jump to search

Set up

1) Install the Nginx web server from [1]. I choose Nginx because there is a precompiled version available. If we find that this does not work, we probably can cross-compile apache or lighttpd for testing purposes.

2) Copy talos to /media/mmc2/talos

3) Make sure that that configure file points to the right places. The important pieces are:

firefox: /root/fennec/fennec process_name: fennec extra_args: ""

4) As root, start nginx as: /usr/sbin/nginx

5) Create a link to the talos page set in /var/www:

ln -s /media/mmc2/talos/page_load_test/ /var/www/page_load_test

6) run talos.

python2.5 run_tests.py sample.config

Known Issues

Note that you must use the [patch https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=426444]. Soon this should just be part of the standard talos install.

I have found that I needed to increase the |sleep| time to 60 in various places in the talos source. Doing a search for "sleep", you will find a few places. We need to identify which places are requirement and what the smallest value is. See [bug https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=432764]

It takes a LONG time.
