[01:45] <Kireji> I'd like to buy/create an ubuntu laptop with a fairly recent chipset and a design like the single-frame titanium macbook pro
[01:46] <Kireji> are there any ubuntu compatible hardware that might be close to that where I can start researching?
[11:38] <Daviey> Hola... So.. if i want to add a test to the upgrade tester, what do i need to do?
[11:38] <Daviey> gema / jibel ?
[11:39] <gema> Daviey: ?
[11:39] <Daviey> gema: ^^ above
[11:39] <gema> yes I am thinking
[11:40] <gema> to which job do you want to add a test?
[11:40] <Daviey> gema: bug 923685 looks like a good candidate for post upgrade inspection
[11:40] <ubot4`> Launchpad bug 923685 in resolvconf (Ubuntu) "New resolver package overwrites manually created resolv.conf on server (affects: 1) (heat: 6)" [High,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/923685
[11:40] <jibel> Daviey, Hello
[11:40] <Daviey> hello jibel, having fun? :)
[11:42] <gema> Daviey: ideally if you write a pyunit script for the test case, we should be able to create a job for it
[11:42] <gema> for the time being
[11:42] <gema> am I right, jibel ?
[11:42] <jibel> Daviey, file a bug against update-manager (this is where auto-upgrade-tester is), write your requirements, the test case and attach a test script ideally a python unittest
[11:42] <jibel> Daviey, and assign the report to the QA team
[11:43] <jibel> and I've fun, yes I do.
[11:43] <Daviey> jibel: Do you have a good example of your unittest style?
[11:44]  * Daviey is seriously stoked we have unit testing framework now btw. :)
[11:44] <jibel> Daviey, http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-core-dev/update-manager/main/view/head:/AutoUpgradeTester/post_upgrade_tests/test_lts_upgrade_user.py
[11:44] <jibel> Daviey, this is an example of what pitti write for the desktop team
[11:45] <Daviey> jibel: So, does this get run in it's own sterile enviroment - or along with other tests?
[11:45] <jibel> Daviey, depends on your requirements.
[11:46] <Daviey> jibel: how does that get declared?
[11:47] <jibel> it can be run in it's own environment, in this case we'll create a specific profile, or with other test, in which case, we'll add the test to an existing profile
[11:47] <gema> Daviey: ideally , unless the test is destructive , you are better off running it with others
[11:48] <gema> Daviey: more realistic environment
[11:48] <Daviey> jibel: So, if i land a file into that location, it doesn't get picked up on it's own - you fiddle with jenkins?
[11:48] <Daviey> gema: right.. just trying to understand the infrastucture.
[11:48] <gema> Daviey: the infrastructure is not there yet
[11:48] <gema> it 's all manual at the moment
[11:48] <jibel> Daviey, by default everything in post_upgrade_test is run
[11:49] <jibel> I manually configure the profiles to blacklist specific tests
[11:49] <gema> we won't be able to pick things automatically (not that we would, because we like to review stuff) until next cycle
[11:49] <Daviey> gema: okay, how do i invoke the tester for local test development?
[11:49] <Daviey> jibel: ah!
[11:49] <jibel> for example it doesn't make sense to run desktop test on server upgrades
[11:49] <jibel> or lts test on oneiric to precise upgrades
[11:49] <Daviey> right
[11:50] <Daviey> jibel: well, seemed pitti coded logic to drop out if it's mot LTS->LTS
[11:50] <jibel> Daviey, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/UpgradeTestingSetup
[11:51] <jibel> Daviey, yup, I added that logic, don't bother with that now. write the test, describe the test environment and conditions required to run the test, and we'll figure how to fit it in.
[11:52]  * jibel -> lunch. back in 45mn
[11:54] <Daviey> thanks jibel & gema
[12:28] <jamespage> jibel: are we using lxc in the main QA lab?
[12:46] <jibel> jamespage, I used it in the lab to setup an environment for litmus and for package testing.
[12:46] <jamespage> jibel: ack - I'm just looking at the work m_3 has done to automatically test charms - it uses the lxc local provider for juju
[12:47] <jamespage> linking about where to deploy longer term...
[16:03] <roadmr> balloons: hey! an Ubuntu Friendly meeting is starting in #ubuntu-meeting, in case you're interested
[16:04] <roadmr> balloons: I think the topics today are mainly technical, still I thought I'd give you a heads-up
[16:11] <balloons> roadmr, on ,y wat thanks
[23:54] <petko> hey guys , I want to ask if there's any way of using the update manager to get alpha 1 or the daily builds or must I go through the USB/CD install ?
