Aurora Walkthrough

Schedule

Merge Day

Switch Automation to Auroratest

Prior to branch migration, Release Engineering with disable updates on the aurora channel. We need to ensure the mozilla-aurora_update Mozmill testruns are set to use the auroratest channel during this period or else the testruns will fail.

  1. Connect to the VPN
  2. Load the configuration interface
  3. Scroll down until you find a String Parameter section named CHANNEL
  4. Change the value of Default Value from aurora to auroratest
  5. Click the Save button
  6. Click the Configure link on the left and scroll down to configure your change has been applied
  7. The next day, check the dashboard to confirm there have been no failures with using the auroratest channel
  8. Also the next day, manually spotcheck a couple of previous Aurora builds to make sure they don't update past yesterday's build
