=== How to test a talos change and use compare-talos ===
* update your mozilla-central checkout & take note of the revision ('''oldRevision''')
* push a build through the try server (this gives you a unique &rev= on Try - '''newRevision''') indicating the platform you want (see [http://people.mozilla.org/~lsblakk/trychooser/trychooser.html TryChooser builder site]) and *no* talos results (we want to force the talos testing on our preprod slave)
hg ci -m "try: -b o -p win32 -u none -t none"
hg push -f try # Verify
* make your personal master to point to the Try tree and to the production graphs DB
** TODO document this step
* do a talos sendchange to your personal master pointing to the try build once completed
** TODO document this step
* once your talos jobs are completed use compare-talos to compare the old and new reviions
** load http://perf.snarkfest.net/compare-talos/
** add the oldRevision and newRevision and submit
** you now have the talos variances
