QA Show and Tell

https://wiki.mozilla.org/QA/Show-and-Tell#Schedule

  • This week:
    • B2G Smoketests Dashboard - jlorenzo
      • POC, not 100% accurate data for now.
      • Use Moztrap and Bugzilla data, stored in ElasticSearch backend (already used for http://charts.mozilla.org/ )
      • Use Highstocks (from http://www.highcharts.com/ ) to render charts.
      • Open questions before going to production:
        • Are we okay to replicate Moztrap data into ES? If so, is a refresh rate of 30 minutes acceptable (equals to the one used for http://charts.mozilla.org/ ) ? . If not, we need to add more data in Moztrap REST API and performance may be an issue. => Need to discuss about it offline.
        • Clicking on a bar of a chart to get the corresponding test cases/bugs is harder to implement than having a chart and a table inventorying them. The table would be refreshed each time the chart is (un)zoomed. Is it okay as a first running version? => Okay for the table in the first release
        • Is the licensing of Highstocks in line with Mozilla? (Creative Commons 3.0 BY-NC, free for non commercial use, http://shop.highsoft.com/highstock.html ) => Need to talk to wlach. Flot may be another solution.
        • What is "Smoketests Age?" - bug-open age? (length of time each smoketest blocker is open, or?)
        • What about filtering by release? => Doable by tracking blocking-b2g flag. This data may not be always accurate.
  • Next week:
