Buildbot

Buildbot Overview

We use Buildbot for automated building and testing of Fast Downward. The Buildbot master for Fast Downward is located at http://buildbot.fast-downward.org/, and it currently runs Buildbot version 0.7.12.

Buildbot Configuration

Our Buildbot is configured with 4 build types:

  • Quick - performs an incremental build immediately after each commit
  • Full - performs an clean build and a quick translator check 5 minutes after each commit
  • Nightly - performs a small planning test and a big translator check every night
  • Weekly - performs a big planning test and a big translator check every night

Buildbot Operation

Here are some basic commands for the buildbot (master or slave):

  • Start 

buildbot start BASEDIR
  • Stop 

buildbot stop BASEDIR
  • Reconfig (reread configuration file without restarting) 

buildbot reconfig BASEDIR
  • Restart 

buildbot restart BASEDIR

BASEDIR is the location of the buildbot configuration file (master.cfg for master, buildbot.tac for slave)

Updating the Configuration for buildbot.fast-downward.org

In a checked-out repository on the buildmaster machine, run: 

cd misc
./update-buildmaster-config

(At the moment, only Malte has access to the buildmaster. It might be a good idea to change that once we migrate our infrastructure away from alfons.)
