Hi devs, The idea today is to do a Test Day with priority to fixing long standing flickering (integration mostly) tests.
You can find known flickering tests on http://jira.xwiki.org/issues/?filter=14240. The goal is to really fix them, not just add some random wait here and there ;) If you are not confident with the area around those specific flickering tests here are some other ideas for this kind of Day: * obviously add more tests and increase the code coverage * move tests from enterprise to platform. Needed for the platform flavor and removal of XE * update jacoco covering setup (we often forget to increase it when adding more tests) * move more tests from JMock to Mockito * work on new test setups and tools: ** improve docker containers for packaging XWiki (possibly several for multiple DBs and Servlet containers). ** work on spreading Jenkins platform job into one job per maven module so that build can be spread on various agents (groovy scripting) ** Research/Use Jenkins 2 Pipeline plugin with the new DSL and commit the jenkinsfile in SCM ** Test platform to run contrib extension tests on various versions of XWiki automatically * Speedup existing tests (research xwiki startup time, remove unnecessary modules, etc) When what you fix can be linked to an issue, tag it with "testday" (same idea as "bugfixingday" when doing BFD). If not then answer to this mail to explain what you did. Good Test Day !
