Because I scheduled the current Test Writing Day to take place on the  
same day as the Monthly Maintenance, I will postpone test writing day  
until next week.


Here is a Doodle poll to help choose the new date:

http://doodle.com/poll/6mbgkn22d29y25r3

I will add this new date to the Evergreen community calendar by the  
end of Friday this week.

Quoting Kathy Lussier :

Jason, do you think there will be much of a conflict with release  
day if we hold off on merging any of the tests until after  
tomorrow? The patches from the August test writing day weren't  
merged until last week, and, I don't see why it would be a problem  
waiting a few days to merge this batch.


For monthly releases, I doubt that it would be a huge deal. I don't
think the tests would normally get back ported to the release branches.

I just recall that 2.9.0 release day was a bit of a pain because people
kept pushing documentation commits after I had already started working
on the release.

I still think it would be a good idea to have test writing day or any
other day involving code or documentation to fall on days other than
release days.

It is tough enough to get releases together without the added
distractions.

(Particularly difficult for me since our release schedule seems to
fall on the day after my consortium's Executive and/or Membership
meetings, so I have a day full of meeting the day before the release.)

Cheers,
Jason

2015-11-17 Thread Jim Taylor

Is there a link to a document somewhere that explains "Test Writing Day"?   
What is the purpose, what happens, how does one get involved, etc.?   I assume 
the name is somewhat self-explanatory but the extended discussion here makes me 
think my first guess was wrong.  I browsed the top level of the web site but 
didn't see anything.

Thanks.

Hi all,

Just to add some clarification on the dates, test-writing day is scheduled for 
today, November 17 and the point release is scheduled for tomorrow, November 18.

I clarified the dates in IRC earlier when I realized there was confusion on the 
dates, but I neglected to send a follow-up email to the lists.

Liam, I don't know how you want to proceed on re-scheduling or not, but I think 
it's fine to continue today.

2015-11-17 Thread liam . whalen

I do not have a page on the Wiki yet describing test writing day.  I  
wrote a quick explanation during the first one.  I will summarize it  
on the Wiki.  Basically, we have a few pieces of code with the tag  
test-writing-day-# on it.  People assign themselves one of those bugs  
(or choose something they want to write a test for), and write a test  
case for it using PgTap or Perl depending on the code in question.
