Using Mirrors

2017-11-01 Thread Hen
Noting that we need to move to using the Apache Mirrors for downloads rather than direct links to apache.org/dist. https://reference.apache.org/committer/website-policy I did a bit of digging, and it looks like we can just refer to this: https://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.cgi/dev/incubator/mxnet/

Hey Henri, I think that's what a few of us are advocating. Running a set of quick tests as part of the PR process, and then a more detailed regression test suite periodically (say every 4 hours). This fits nicely into a tagging or 2 branch development system. Commits will be tagged (or merged int

Random question - can the CI be split such that the Apache CI is doing a basic set of checks on that hardware, and is hooked to a PR, while there is a larger "Is trunk good for release?" test that is running periodically rather than on every PR? ie: do we need each PR to be run on varied hardware,

To point 7) I did a little bit of measure / profiling of our test runs a week or two ago and came to the same conclusion. I assumed the slow downs were mostly due to new tests which had recently been added. There were quite a few gluon tests for example added, and I think they're fairly resource

Bhavin: I would add on point 5 that it doesn't alway make sense to attach ownership for the broken integration test to the PR author. We're planning extensive integration tests on a variety of hardware. Some of these test failures won't be reproducible by most PR authors and the effort to resolve

Hi Bhavin Good suggestions. I wanted to respond to your point #5 The promotion of integration to master would be done automatically by jenkins once a commit passes the nightly tests. So it should not impose any additional burden on the developers, as there is no manual step involved / human gate

Few comments/suggestions: 1) Can we have this nice list of todo items on the Apache MXNet wiki page to track them better? 2) Can we have a set of owners for each set of tests and source code directory? One of the problems I have observed is that when there is a test failure, it is difficult to f
