As of yesterday, I’ve drastically increased the number of testing machines in Jenkins (from two to 21!). This enables me to poll for changes in git every five minutes and automatically start a testing run for every single commit – regardless of it entering via Gerrit or not. (Note: This is in addition to the Gerrit trigger I’ve been using from day one on, not replacing it.)

Here’s an example from today:

Apart from looking at Jenkins directly, you can join the #exherbo-bots channel where the jenkins-exherbo bot announces all test results. Here’s an example for that:

[03.01.2014 13:42:59] <irker657> Exherbo: pipping arbor:master * 76ec9309669d / packages/sys-apps/grep/grep-2.15.exheres-0 packages/sys-apps/grep/grep-2.16.exheres-0: grep: Bump to 2.16 http://tinyurl.com/pyfhbql
[03.01.2014 13:46:50] <jenkins-exherbo> Project arbor build #67:SUCCESS in 1 min 5 sec: https://galileo.mailstation.de/jenkins/job/arbor/67/

I hope you’ll find this useful and will actually look at the results since it will find out if you missed a dependency. And it potentially shows you automagic dependencies.

I am and have been working on quite a few F/OSS projects: Exherbo (Nick: Philantrop) Gentoo (Nick: Philantrop) Calibre plugin iOS reader applications Calibre plugin Marvin XD chroot-manager stuff on github Lots of other projects If you like my work, feel free to donate. 🙂
