Adding a build-only job for 18.04 makes sense to me. A full test run on every precommit seems a bit expensive but doing one once a week or something like that might be a good idea to prevent runtime regressions.
As for switching the precommit from 16.04 to 18.04, I'd lean towards keeping to 16.04 due to it being closer in terms of component versions to common enterprise distros like RHEL 7. -Todd On Sun, May 19, 2019 at 5:03 PM Jim Apple <jbap...@apache.org> wrote: > HEAD now passes on Ubuntu 18.04: > > https://jenkins.impala.io/job/ubuntu-18.04-from-scratch/ > > Thanks to the community members who have made this happen! > > Should we add Ubuntu 18.04 to our pre-merge Jenkins job, replace 16.04 with > 18.04 in our pre-merge Jenkins job, or neither? > > I propose adding 18.04 for now (ans so running both 16.04 and 18.04 on > merge) and removing 16.04 when it starts to become inconvenient. > -- Todd Lipcon Software Engineer, Cloudera
