jibeljamespage, ping08:46
jamespagejibel: pong08:46
jibeljamespage, good morning08:46
jamespageah - thresholds!08:46
jibeljamespage, yep :)08:46
jamespagesorry08:46
jamespageforgot to reply08:46
jibelnp08:47
jibelballoons, I get the scrollbars with vmware too08:47
jamespagejibel: I'd go for current figures + 5%08:47
jamespagewe will know when it grows then08:47
gemajamespage: what are the current numbers based on?08:48
jibeljamespage, ok, I'll update the check08:48
gemajamespage: I am trying to figure out if those tests are worth keeping or why they were added08:48
jamespagegema, http://testcases.qa.ubuntu.com/Install/ServerMinimalVirtualInstall08:49
gemajamespage: I know, I was looking at them yesterday, the source code08:49
jamespagethe original target was a < 500 MB install08:49
gemalooks quite random08:49
gemayeah, but why?08:49
jamespagethe test case generally is worth keeping as it keeps an eye on the kernel size08:49
jamespagegema, why predates mw08:50
gemait measures the size of the whole install08:50
jamespageme08:50
jamespagegema, the purpose on the minimal virtual install is to have as small an install as possible for virtualized systems08:50
gemaahh, hold on, I wasn't talking about that one x)08:50
gemawas talking about the installsize one08:51
gemajamespage: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-server-iso-testing-dev/ubuntu-server-iso-testing/trunk/view/head:/templates/test_cases/minimal-virtual/test08:51
jamespagegema, so am I08:52
gemajamespage: self.assertTrue( used < 590000, "Used: %s" % (used))08:52
gemathat tests the size of the whole install08:52
jamespagegema, this is the test for quantal - http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-server-iso-testing-dev/+junk/server-tests-quantal/view/head:/test_cases/minimal-virtual/test08:53
jamespagegema, yeah - spot on08:53
gemajamespage: ok, my next question then would be, is that a smoke test or a regression test?08:54
gemajamespage: that affects 0 the usability of the system08:55
gemajamespage: nor we are going to fix it in a matter of hours08:55
jamespagegema, no08:56
gemajamespage: ?08:56
jamespagegema, no - its not going to be fixed in a matter of hours08:56
gemaok, then it is not a smoke test08:57
gemait should be run once a week or so08:57
jamespagegema, fine08:57
gemaok08:57
jamespageso long as the test run and we can see the results I'm not worried08:57
jamespage:-)08:57
gemajamespage: yep, I am trying to classify things the right way, so that we end up with the right tests in the right places08:57
gemajamespage: thanks08:57
jamespagegema, thats good with me08:57
jamespagewe just need to ensure people don't just look at smoke testing as a measure of quality08:58
gemajamespage: for that we first need to have something else as well :)08:58
jamespagegema, agreed08:58
jamespageold habits die hard tho08:58
jamespage:-)08:58
gemayep08:58
gemajamespage: it'll take a while, but we'll get there08:59
jamespagegema, I guess once all of the tests are in a nice library assembling suites for smoke and regression focus will be much easier09:01
gemajamespage:  I hope so09:01
gemajamespage: the only thing that should be different for smoke testing is the runlist09:02
gemawe can still have the tests in the same pool09:02
jamespagegema, +109:02
jamespagethat was how I was thing about it09:02
gemabut have two different runlists, or as many as we need09:02
gemait may be that for arm we want to run different things09:02
gemafor instance09:02
gemajamespage: but the current tests are going to end up in a legacy pool09:03
gemauntil we have a better home for them09:03
gemawhich will be built on the second step09:03

jibelstgraber, what is your opinion on bug 101827114:51
ubot5Launchpad bug 1018271 in debian-installer (Ubuntu) "unexpected prompt for nameserver IP when using DHCP" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/101827114:51
jibelstgraber, not the prompt but the second part of the bug report14:51

jibelDaviey, should I go and populate the results for server from automated tests or someone on your team doing ?15:07
Davieyjibel: do you have the script?15:07
jibelDaviey, yes, not perfect, but kind of.15:09
Davieyjibel: If you are happy to, that would be great!15:13
Davieyjibel: would you mind committing the script to bzr somewhere.. as i only have what was emailed around.15:14
jibelDaviey, https://code.launchpad.net/~jibel/+junk/qatracker15:15
Davieyjibel: somewhere, less jibleised?15:16
jibelI can probably do that too.15:16

stgraberjibel: did you manage to reproduce this bug? (1018271)17:42
stgraberjibel: I'm not aware of any change that would have affected netcfg in quantal17:42
stgraberas for the 127.0.0.1 part, it's the expected behaviour on a desktop running network-manager (netcfg probably discarded that dns info as it's on dhcp)17:43
jibelstgraber, I tried but I didn't reproduce it.18:13
jibelstgraber, I really cannot. The only way I found is to press 'cancel' when during dchp configuration in d-i. Which is not what I'd call an 'unexpected prompt'18:24
