RoundTable
- RSVP for the September All Hands
Goals
- Work with release engineering to reduce overall end-to-end time from push to test result to an average of 2 hours.
- Ensure all harnesses and tests are E10S ready
- Improve performance testing by finalizing user-activated addons performance system, xperf-enabled performance testing, and automating a user responsiveness performance test.
Automation
- Go Faster (P1) - jgriffin, ted, mdas, bc, ctalbert, wlach
- Go Faster Dashboards - harth, samliu
- httpd.js profiling - bc
- xpcshell tests slow on Win7 - wlach
- Pinned most of remaining problems on slow disk i/o on Mac Minis. Potential resolutions to the problems being tracked in bug 675363 -- might be unfixable?
- speeding up mochitest-browser-chrome - wlach
- Looking into this, summarized initial work + findings in a post to mozilla.tools titled "Going Faster: Mochitest browser chrome test results" (unfortunately this didn't propagate to google groups for some unknown reason, so no link). Going to do some more profiling on mac and 32-bit Linux this week to see why some relative results are so slow.
- speeding up mochitest-plain - jgriffin
- working on chasing down more patches for slow individual mochitests: bug 670229
- Mobile Support (P1) - jmaher, bmoss, ctalbert
- Ted got a stack for the "Fenenc goes away during talos tpan" bug.
- matched what the mobile guys found as well.
- But it looks like a corrupted stack.
- Tegra Pool Automation - jhammel, ??
- Bug Hunter (P1) - bc
- Purify is pretty fragile
- Got some results from js tests, sent them to dmandelin
- Working on reftests now, will send results to the layout devs
- Waiting to see if the results are useful or not.
- Bug Hunter UI - mcote, bc
- Still mostly in design phase but started refactoring to support the first crashes view.
- Purify is pretty fragile
- Mozmill 2.0/1.5.x (P1) - jhammel, harth, ctalbert
- Release 2.0 Preview today
- Updating documentation last week
- Crossweave 2 - jgriffin
- Landed patch that moves the configuration file that TPS out of the tree, which prevents people from screwing up the tree's configuration accidentally.
- Returning to make TPS command this week.
Performance
- Talos/User Responsiveness (P1) - anode, ted
- Talos/Addon Testing Service (P1) - anode
- Talos/Xperf (P2) - jmaher
- SpeedTests (P2) - mcote
- Installing BrowserScope on flyingtanks for experimentation.
- Eideticker (P2) - mcote
Web Tools
- War on Orange/Auto-log (P1) - jgriffin, mcote
- A few bug fixes. Thanks to glob for noticing someone complaining about missing data in WOO in #developers; doubt that we would have caught this bug otherwise!
- Bugzilla Improvements (P1) - dkl, glob
- Security focus: BMO/LDAP cross-matching; hmac/bcrypt encryption
- Bugzilla security release

- Regression Hunter (P1) - harth, samliu
- DXR Automation/Support {P2} - mdas
- Personal Bugzilla Dashboard (P2) - harth
Tool Infrastructure
- SpecialPowers (P1) - jmaher, ted
- MozBase (P2) - jmaher, jhammel, ted
- Web UX Platform (P2) - mcote, harth
- Finished first version of the templeton app server which will eliminate the need to cut & paste init.d scripts and nginx config. Will try it out with samliu's most recent dashboard this week.
- flyingtanks - mcote
- Still working with catlee on getting his treestatus app working correctly (he was out last week). Partially working now (no LDAP support yet).
