Hello, as you know we have had Jenkins running and reporting build issues for almost two weeks now. After initial hiccups I think it has performed quite well so far. I know of only one occasion where Jenkins blamed the wrong commit for failing (and that was only because the segfault didn't happen every time the tests ran) and I think it is worth having the Jenkins bot report failed and fixed builds.
All was fine until earlier today when the Jenkins bot got kicked from #edevelop for use of colors and excessive messaging. I disabled colors and reduced the message to only report success of failure in order to have the bot in the channel again. I do think, however, that the earlier options were useful and we should re-enable them - thus this mail. What the bot actually printed was this: <efl-jenkins> Yippie, build fixed! <efl-jenkins> Project efl build #116:FIXED in 14 min: http://jenkins.enlightenment.org/job/efl/116/ <efl-jenkins> * tom: Disable cow magic in dev profile, instead of a hack in the source. <efl-jenkins> * tom: Eina cow: Don't tests things that depend on magic when it's off. When enabling colors the bot writes the status SUCCESS/FAILURE in green/red. This allows me to quickly look for the latest status in the backlog which I find quite useful. It will also highlight commit messages containing the word "test" in magenta. The other option I disabled was to also include the changes that contributed towards this status change (the last two messages). This has the advantage of highlighting whoever broke the build (or fixed it) and gives you a rough idea what could have broken it. So what do you think? Is this too much, does it bother you? Should we re-enable the these features? Regards, Daniel ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Everyone hates slow websites. So do we.
