Agenda
- Dashboard site is live and fast now (thanks to wlach); what do all the numbers mean?
- related to above, where are we w.r.t our 2-hour goal? Which open items are going to produce the greatest improvements?
- Review the Action Items & Bugs
Action items from last time
- will to follow up with catlee regarding dashboard calculations
- jgriffin to change test run comparison routine to compare against a range of recent m-c runs instead of one run to help mitigate the fact that test durations vary considerably per run, even when equivalent
- jgriffin to get data on infrequently failing tests, and how long they take to run
- ted to file bug about harnesses downloading symbols on demand
- Any p2 bugs need to escalate?
Review [buildfaster:p1] bugs
Review current activities
- we've put investigation of running debug tests with opt xpcshell on hold, since opt debug builds seem likely to materialize sometime soon (bug 669953)
- still need a mechanism to track individual slow tests; jmaher suggested the correct metric to do this is test duration/test asserts; need to update the logparser to handle this
