Hi,
We have a set of Jenkins jobs that run daily and execute Ruby+Selenium
tests. Recently, the way we run those jobs reached a point where we had to
do some serious refactoring[0]. The old jobs were named browsertests*[1],
the new are named selenium*[2].
Changes:
#1 The creation and deletion of jobs have been made simpler. Each
repository now
has only a single job defined in Jenkins. It is a multi configuration job
that spawns one or more child job based on a configuration in each
repository: `tests/browser/ci.yml`[3]. The main job will then spawn child
jobs based on its content.
#2 Jobs execute `selenium` Rake target (`bundle exec rake selenium`). It is
defined in the Rakefile of each repository and load the Rake task from
mediawiki_selenium
Ruby gem version 1.7.0[4].
What does it mean for you?
At this point, no action in needed. All required changes have already been
made. When the selenium* job passed for a repository, I have already
deleted the browsertests* legacy one. There is still a few repositories
(Flow, MobileFrontend, MultimediaViewer, Wikidata) that need to be moved,
but we are working on that.
If you have any questions, let me know.
