Notes

Build 1

Preparing to start Automation

detailed instructions

  • Set clobbers for the appropriate masters. Doing this 24-48 hours in advance should speedup the build.
  • Reserve slaves
[cltbld@buildbot-master34 master]$ echo "10" > /builds/buildbot/build1/master/reserved_slaves
  • For build1 only, create a symlink for your $version (eg 11.0b4, 10.0.2esr, 10.0.2, 3.6.27) (until bug 725839 is resolved)
# tbirdbld@stage
cd /pub/mozilla.org/thunderbird/nightly/
mkdir ../candidates/13.0b3-candidates
ln -s ../candidates/13.0b3-candidates 13.0b3-candidates
  • Update l10n changesets for desktop, mobile
  • Land automation configs (are you or buildduty going to reconfig? great, merge. otherwise double-land only your configs)
  • Tag buildbot-configs, buildbotcustom, & tools with build & release tags. (details)
    • hg tag THUNDERBIRD_13_0b3_{RELEASE,BUILD1}
  • update and reconfigure the master
# removed all local changes
cd /builds/buildbot/build1
make update && make checkconfig && python buildbot-wrangler.py reconfig `pwd`/master
  • start automation
cd /builds/buildbot/build1
source bin/activate
buildbot sendchange --username=rail --master localhost:9001 --branch=releases/comm-beta \
  --comments "THUNDERBIRD 13.0b3 BUILD 1" -p products:thunderbird \
  -p script_repo_revision:THUNDERBIRD_13_0b3_BUILD1 release_build
