The Boulders

Automation

  • tweaked the population of workers so that we're no longer ballooning the memory, throughput is looking good.
  • working on example templates this week to move the UI discussion forward on wednesday.

• Mozmill 2.0/1.5.x - harth, jhammel, ctalbert
  • IO Completion ports patch almost finished (mozprocess)
  • Errors are not enumerable is fixed.
  • Addon with a non-unicode string in it it works.

Performance

• Talos/Addon Testing Service - ctalbert, anode
  • Keeping track of IT/Releng stuff - re-pinged the bug about getting the VM, seems to be sitting with no attention.
  • w.r.t. machines, looks like everything is ready to go except for the snow lepoard machines that need imaging.

• Talos/Tp5 - anode
  • working with releng to roll out the tp5 pageset.

• Talos/XPerf - jmaher
  • Patches on anode's queue are being reviewed
  • Staging them this week.

Web Tools

• War on Orange/Auto-log - jgriffin, mcote
  • New UI for filter controls deployed; Simulator merged into Orange Factor view.
  • New favicon; considering using it for WOO t-shirts :D
  • Nearly done new server, which will be proof of concept for part of the WebUXPlatform.
  • Added ability for autolog to store log files, will return to UI work soon

• Bugzilla Improvements - dkl, glob
  • REST API improvements
  • Basic Framework for a roadmap extension for bugzilla

Tool Infrastructure

• MozBase - jmaher, ted, jhammel
  • (Formally the Mozharness/buildbot integration)

The Gravel

Automation

• Supporting Releng with Android Automation Rollout - ctalbert, bmoss, jmaher

Performance

• User Responsiveness Measurement - ted
  • No progress this week, going to catch up with dietrich and see where we're at

• SpeedTestsJS - mcote
  • First Windows box has been running fine all week! Going to turn it down to twice a day, since four times is excessive.
  • Some issues setting up the second Windows box:
    • A warning screen comes up on every boot which must be dismissed with a mouse click; this prevents automatic login.
    • Some stored profiles didn't seem to work. Not sure if we'll ever be able to fully get around this, so improving some tools to save and restore stock profiles.

• Toolbox - jhammel, harth
