RoundTable

Welcome jeads! I think mdas gets to keep her "least time spent as the newbie on the team", but wlach is a close second!
Ctalbert mostly WFH this week, but should be around -- dr. appts monday pm and friday am.

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.

Go Faster (P1) - jgriffin, ted, mdas, bc, ctalbert, wlach
- potentially running mochitests that never fail less often - jgriffin
- Go Faster Dashboards - wlach
  - Now updated with live data at http://brasstacks.mozilla.com/gofaster/#
  - 'Is this build faster tool?' webui up (using jgriffin's backend)
  - Licensing of highcharts.js makes dashboard software non-free :(
- mochitest profiling suite - mdas
- Faster unpack/clobber times - wlach
  - No real wins there :( {bug|

Mobile Support (P1) - jmaher, bmoss, ctalbert
- Landed patch to remove etc/hosts file to fix the big "crash in tpan bug"
- Next bug is a failure to launch which seems to be a problem in fork in the OS, jchen has a patch
- xpcshell tests using ADB is landing, and we'll be working on porting that to use the SUT Agents and into the tegra automation
- Tegra Pool Automation - jhammel: no progress

Bug Hunter (P1) - bc
- Bug Hunter UI - mcote, bc
  - Auth UI done along with some refactoring and cleaning. Should be ready for jeads to jump in!

Mozmill 2.0/1.5.x (P1) - jhammel, harth, ctalbert
- bug 659488 is turning into a time-pit; trying to figure out a good resolution there

Crossweave 2 (TPS) - jgriffin
- Landing patch that enables Mozmill tests in TPS today
- Working on follow-up patch which exposes some Sync API's to those Mozmill tests

Talos/User Responsiveness (P1) - anode, ted
- Moving forward with the plan to use ted's tool to generate a single responsiveness metric
- It will be difficult to get regressions out of but will give you an idea of whether a given build is more or less responsive than another build.

Talos/Addon Testing Service (P1) - anode
- Final cleanup on graphserver
- Ready to do a full system rollout and pushing tests through the system

Talos General (P1) - anode
- Updating the flash plugin for tp - ready to land, if anyone has other patches that will need a downtime then we should land them at the same time.

Talos/Xperf (P2) - jmaher
- Landed changes for talos/xperf to log data to autolog, this should be deployed today. Only three machines left that need tools installed, Armen is working on that with IT.
- Finishing up the last buildbot config patch to turn these on by default

Eideticker (P2) - mcote
- Dev box should be arriving here within a week or so.

War on Orange/Auto-log (P1) - jgriffin, mcote
- Some oranges have been hidden in TBPL for quite a while due to various bugs; need to develop OF view which allows these to be hunted down easily.
- More work on test failure correlations.

Bugzilla Improvements (P1) - dkl, glob
- tell-us-more : development work ongoing, requirements shifting
- there are now exactly zero stray moco blessed accounts on BMO (was: 64)
- inline history is coming to BMO this week
- last week saw a lot of work around the new rapid release version, exposing some limitations in bugzilla that need to be worked around
- ongoing work with porting over to 4.2

Regression Hunter (P1) - harth
- Still waiting on IT to get the machine that will store the builds

DXR Automation/Support {P2} - mdas
- No progress; there is no dedicated DXR contact and I'm experiencing more build errors. Should have a DXR contact soon (taras will update me)

SpecialPowers (P1) - jmaher, ted
- Stalled due to some leaks that are showing up post-checkin on some of the patches
- Has a patch for setting preferences that makes it more synchronous.
  - Also ensures that all preferences that are set are removed when the test ends

MozBase (P2) - jmaher, jhammel, ted
- Discussions about how to install mozbase packages into m-c/test machines/developer environments
- Should have a proposal this week

Web UX Platform (P2) - mcote, harth
- wlach has been making a few improvements.
