Perfomatic:API

Overview

Staging server up at: http://graphs-stage2.mozilla.org

The graph server API is a REST API with a JSON only response format.

The API is scheduled to launch in Q1.

Test server will be ready early Q1.

Using getdata.cgi?

If you are, things are going to change.

The biggest change is how we store tests. Currently, a test id can give you test results in time:value intervals. In the new architecture a test id will only get you a description of that test, nothing more.

In order to get test data, you have to know the test AND build AND machine you want results for. The current architecture assumes this based on test id.

For example, let's assume you want test results for Tp3 tests. Querying graphs.mozilla.org/api/test gives you a list of tests by build and OS.
