Re: [Mono-dev] Still seeking contractor to adding Tizen support to Mono

2014-06-14 Thread Alex Rønne Petersen
Yes, http://monojenkins.cloudapp.net/ is what is used to test the
major projects under the Mono org on Linux, and also to test pull
requests.

We will soon be changing the setup there to accommodate
multi-configuration builds (e.g. x86, amd64, linux, os x, ...) so if
you have machines you'd like to contribute, that can definitely be
arranged.

Note that for each platform, we'd need 4 machines at minimum to be
able to keep up on busy days. The Small (A1) Azure tier seems to work
well enough for this purpose.

Thanks for the information, Alex.

Is that Xamarin-funded infrastructure?Or something which you set up
outside of Xamarin prior to your employment?

If there is some way in which we can ensure that non-Xamarin-employees
working on Mono can contribute to that automation setup, that would be
splendid.

 Do the build agents spin up when they're needed, or are they running all the

 Yes, http://monojenkins.cloudapp.net/ is what is used to test the
 major projects under the Mono org on Linux, and also to test pull
 requests.

 We will soon be changing the setup there to accommodate
 multi-configuration builds (e.g. x86, amd64, linux, os x, ...) so if
 you have machines you'd like to contribute, that can definitely be
 arranged.

 Note that for each platform, we'd need 4 machines at minimum to be
 able to keep up on busy days. The Small (A1) Azure tier seems to work
 well enough for this purpose.

   We should still have automation independent of Xamarin, though.
   Mono != Xamarin.

   AFAIK, Xamarin uses this for mono (it's working link)

   also I've seen travis scripts in the mono tree some time ago
   (some of
   them or even all were removed)

Anybody can use Travis.CI or drone.io as build

can run
tests on different platforms. For example, here the

to run
tests on ARM platform using Travis.CI.
   
  
   http://www.tomaz.me/2013/12/02/running-travis-ci-tests-on-arm.html
   
Also Travis.CI has built-in support for OSX and
   Ubuntu
operating
systems. So it's possible to write script, which
   will test
mono across
several tizen platforms the only bad thing could be
   a build
time
limitation.

what I see is
 a pricing

 there a cloud-based TeamCity services).
   CloudBees
based on

 100 min/month for free projects while
   drone.io does
not have
 monthly
 limitations for open source. But drone.io
   has 30-min

   Travis.CI

 that there
 are no limitation for open source

somewhere I

 For open-source project it's a good to

 about additional infrastructure for CI,
