Doug Cutting commented on AVRO-1537:
------------------------------------
This is great. It works for me!
It would be great if one could easily use this to create tag and branch
workspaces in addition to trunk. Can we somehow pass a parameter to indicate
this?
Why check out from both SVN and git? Is that just for exemplary purposes?
Might we somehow use this to create a release-building script?

> It's currently quite tedious to set up an environment in which the Avro test
> suites for all supported languages can be run, and in which release
> candidates can be built. This is especially so when we need to test against
> several different versions of a programming language or VM (e.g.
> JDK6/JDK7/JDK8, Ruby 1.8.7/1.9.3/2.0/2.1).
> Our shared Hudson server isn't an ideal solution, because it only runs tests
> on changes that are already committed, and maintenance of the server can't
> easily be shared across the community.
> I think a Docker image might be a good solution, since it could be set up by
> one person, shared with all Avro developers, and maintained by the community
> on an ongoing basis. But other VM solutions (Vagrant, for example?) might
> work just as well. Suggestions welcome.
