Hi all,
With recent choice of leaving support for old Eclipse versions, the
project is now more clean and the build is easier to tweak. As tracked
by bug 359024, I tried to create a Tycho builder for SWTBot. All the
stuff is about adding pom.xml in bundles and features. It can be found
on the "master" branch of my Git repo:
https://github.com/mickaelistria/swtbot
The current status is that some tests are failing simply because they
apparently cannot work on a non QWERTY-native machine. It is the last
point in the bug. I'd be glad if someone can simply check-out the branch
and run "mvn clean install" on it, and confirm that all the tests are
green for him.
I can say that this builder provides everything necessary to replace the
current one ie a p2 repository. It is far easier to maintain, and more
important, it is far easier to run a build locally. Moreover, Tycho is
widely used in the Eclipse community, so that it is easy to get support
when necessary, and there are already lots of useful stuff provided for
Eclipse artifacts (such as signing).
Then the debate is: What do you think about SWTBot moving to Tycho ASAP ?
