Hi Kumar, That’s great. I've been working along similar lines, I'd love to collaborate with you on this.
Are you able to share an estimated timescale with us? And are you thinking of sharing the code and construction details of how to build the environment(s) for the community and users to build or are you looking to deploy the CI capability on ASF infra for the community to consume?

The current travis CI is not good enough as it runs only simulator tests. We identified this issue and came up with a effective CI for automating test runs for a each PR. This is already functional, with few github integration aspects pending. We are internally stabilizing it before sharing it. We have been in touch with David Nalley ( CC’ed ) in making this operational for entire community using ACS infra. For your reference, here is the FS I have shared with the community earlier and also in this thread before, your feedback is welcome. (https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/CLOUDSTACK/Test+bed+orchestrator+and+test+runner+to+enable+continuos+integration). Thanks, Bharat.

While I think PRs were alright and it did not break anything, the way it was merged made people uncomfortable that there is some sort of haste in doing this fast which there is none. I’ll not repeat this and hope you understand that I never had any hidden agenda but to simply help people with some PRs. Regards.

We have lots of PR pending (as mentioned before by Remi) and we need people to help review and test. So thanks to Rohit. My only concerns were two fold: 1- We need to keep to adhere to our release principles: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/CLOUDSTACK/Release+principles+for+Apache+CloudStack+4.6+and+up Hence I replied to some PR asking if they needed to be merged directly in master or not and wondered about the release branches. With so many releases in flight it is not yet clear to me where we start to apply a PR ? 2- We need to keep testing and post results of tests. Currently it is manual and but there has been a strong guarantee in the last releases that the PR where not going to break things. While I agree that some PR are small and *should* not break things, history has shown that even small unrelated things *somehow* can affect the behavior of cloudstack. So I proposed a freeze because: - Remi stepped down as RM and we don’t have an official RM yet. - The code has reached a solid state and we don’t want to do anything that changes that - We have a proposal for LTS on the floor - We still don’t have CI. So my standpoint is that we focused in the last 6 months on getting our release principles right (pending LTS principles), code has stabilized and we can release. Awesome. Now is probably a good time to concentrate our limited resources on figuring out automated CI. - For instance as far as I know Travis is bonkers…(reports green but does not do anything) - And with citrix stepping out, we need to take control of the jenkins slaves (some of which are on AWS and still paid by Citrix…) My email while triggered by seeing Rohit’s commits, was not a judgement or critic of his actions, so let’s not get into a personal argument here. -Sebastien On Jan 28, 2016, at 11:00 AM, Rohit Yadav <rohit.ya...@shapeblue.com> wrote: So, since some have directly (over IM etc) or indirectly have thrown allegations on me since I merged most of the PRs. Here is a list of those 12 PRs and answers on why they were merged on case-by-case basis. Please keep any further replies technical and to the specific PR, please point out and revert if needed: 1. https://github.com/apache/cloudstack/pull/1288 Enough LGTMs, JS related change and fix tested with UI screenshot from Remi. I personally looked at the diff and therefore then merged. 2. https://github.com/apache/cloudstack/pull/1274/files Enough LGTMs, a simple NPE fix one-liner. I personally thought we can cheat here and given Travis/Jenkins passed I merged it. 3. https://github.com/apache/cloudstack/pull/1261/files Enough LGTMs, the diff only removed unused variable leading to change in the constructor definition. Explicit integration tests are not necessary as it’d simply dead-code removal and as the simulator smoke tests passed with Travis/Jenkins passed so I merged it. 4. https://github.com/apache/cloudstack/pull/1048 Enough LGTMs. This change is related to a marvin test itself where it adds 2 new test methods — so no need to run regression integration test. The integration test result of the marvin test was shared in the comment. PR merged on this basis. 5. https://github.com/apache/cloudstack/pull/1044 Enough LGTMs and regression tests results (shared as attachments by Daan, in case someone missed), so merged. 6. https://github.com/apache/cloudstack/pull/969 Enough LGTMs and regression tests results (shared as attachments by Daan, in case someone missed), so merged. 7. https://github.com/apache/cloudstack/pull/855 Enough LGTMs and regression tests results by Remi, so merged. 8. https://github.com/apache/cloudstack/pull/831 Enough LGTMs and only text changes in API doc-string so merged given Travis/Jenkins passed. 9. https://github.com/apache/cloudstack/pull/830/files Enough LGTMs and NPE fixes, so no explicit integration tests required given Travis/Jenkins passed. 10. https://github.com/apache/cloudstack/pull/1256/files Enough LGTMs and simple Java OOP fix with Travis/Jenkins passed so merged this. I’m aware of this codebase. 11. https://github.com/apache/cloudstack/pull/1240 Enough LGTMs, the changes would require manual tests wrt usage server etc as well as confirmed in comments. I had seen the regression test result (of the new/modified marvin test wrt of the feature) so merged. The regression test suite does not include this among other tests. 12. https://github.com/apache/cloudstack/pull/1289 Enough LGTMs, this was a findbugs related fix. Travis/Jenkins passed on it and the findbugs mvn job result was shared to confirm that the fix works now. This was not merged by me. Regards.
