I tried to use it. It is OK, but I have some comments on it. First of all, let me describe as I see the testing process:
- for developers: Before the commit of new feature/ fix the developer should run some 'pre-integration tests' (it may be unit tests) to be sure that workspace will not broken by commit. If developer have more than 1 platform it will nice to run these tests on different platforms. It is a base testing infrastructure for any project and Harmony already has it (for both - vm and api). Also, the "cruise control" systems on the target platforms over 'pre-integration tests' will be very useful just to check that the current workspace is OK (not all developers can check fixes on all target platforms). - for other community members (all peoples who want to help): If somebody wants to help to run tests he should download only the binary form of HDK, tests and script(s) to run it. Than he run all tests and upload/ emails results back. Of cause, these scripts should require minimum external tools (for example, 'ant' only). It is may be one time action for this member or time-to-time (depends on his wishes). In this context seems a little bit discourteous to ask users to use the cruise control, svn, c/c++ compilers etc to run Harmony tests. On other side, for developers your system is a little bit excessive. - for testing engineer (or somebody from developers): Looking through the result reports for different platforms, tries to reproduce detected failures and propose fixes for them. Of cause, it is my thoughts only and may be it does not true, but I want to try to prepare testing scripts based on HDK (or snapshots of workspace) and tests archives.

What do you mean "in case"? :) I'm hoping we can do that sooner rather than later... geir > > Alex. > > > On 11/07/06, Geir Magnusson Jr < [EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >> >> >> Richard Liang wrote: >> > >> > It seems that JAVA_HOME is required by cc/cruisecontrol.sh on my Ubuntu >> > :-) Do I miss something?
