Hello guys, maybe there is a time to improve the structure of build jobs and to increase the throughput by eliminating duplicated tasks. These days every job builds the IDE, builds the tests and then it executes some tests. We can do better than that! There has been a "test distribution" in NetBeans for years and according to its creator Petr Zajac, it is still working! It would be good to have one job that builds the ZIP of the IDE and builds the ZIP for the test distribution. Only then other "testing" jobs are started, download the two ZIP files and use them to perform the tests only. Btw. When at it, shouldn't we consider to use https://ci-builds.apache.org/ ? It is an infrastructure that fully runs on Apache's hardware - e.g. we aren't going to be influenced deals with external providers like Travis or Azure. Moreover Jenkins supports pipelines to pass the ZIPs from one job to another... Together we can save the planet! -jt --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@netbeans.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@netbeans.apache.org For further information about the NetBeans mailing lists, visit: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/NETBEANS/Mailing+lists
