I was able to successfully perform almost all of the validation on the source
bundle that I wanted to:
- basically followed the non-RM, non-binary items in [6]
downloaded, checked signatures/sums, checked identical tar.gz / zip contents
verified LICENSE, NOTICE, DISCLAIMER, RELEASE_NOTES, README
build/tested via README
I will run the manual kafka tests to verify those look good.
But there are a couple of things...
- I wanted to review more detailed test result status from my manual release
build/test validation
(e.g., what was run / what was skipped as noted in [6]) but “./mvnw clean
install site:site site:stage”
failed, complaining that the source tree wasn’t a git repo.
- It’s unclear to me if the *exact jar/war bits* staged in nexus have been
tested or not.
I suspect they have been tested, hence there’s nothing missing or broken, but
want to verify. Chris, can you elaborate on that please?
If they have been tested as part the release process so far, is there a test
results and code coverage reports
that one can review?
