Hello all, The upgrade of the public Jenkins <https://build.testeng.edx.org/> instance to Ubuntu 16.04 (Xenial) is now complete. This includes an update to Firefox (now v.45) and to Chrome (now v.55).
In order to upgrade the browsers, a few flaky conditions had to be dealt with. To avoid these, make sure to cherry-pick the following commits into any existing PRs: * https://github.com/edx/edx-platform/commit/786444958f6d1e74b6b3e0090a70c7 535186cdd3 * https://github.com/edx/edx-platform/commit/1bd30cffb86cacc9ae6818525fbafc 9af3e48b38 * https://github.com/edx/edx-platform/commit/0c53f6c88e4bf1fda5e5749b94aacb33acab1e7f A flaky condition in JS tests, which had previously disappeared, has reappeared and causes some builds to fail. Please see TNL-6195 for reference. In case you encounter any problems, please let me know the #dev room in Slack.
