Groovy! Is there a todo list of what needs to be done for winetest anywhere? Going to http://test.winehq.com/ still yields an error, you have to know the magic URL and then navigate the builds manually. It'd be nice to get some pretty HTML frontend to that going: a task for somebody who is keen but doesn't want to hack Wine itself maybe? Could you elaborate your plan for winetest Feri? thanks -mike

I've got one myself, but keep it secret, of course. Still I can tell the only item of real interest is adding a Tag input field to the binary, which was brought forward by the apparent need of interactive and visible runs.

Ok, perhaps I can give out the classified URL: http://test.winehq.org/data/ Yes, you have to navigate manually (the links on the top don't work), but I've got Jeremy Newmann's word on knocking something up by yesterday. That something includes making those links work at least.

Yes, unless Jer has actually done it. Turning it into a template would also be possible, but I'm not too keen on it as that would steal real screen estate. But would be a nice touch, for sure.
Could you elaborate your plan for winetest Feri?
What makes you think I've got one? It should be *you* who speak up and tell what information/presentation is need for the best and easiest use. -- Yours, Feri.

I basically did: some UI for test.winehq.com to let you easily navigate the available builds. Also clicking on the info/name links gives a 404 right now in many cases, so ... just making it feel more like a full website and some extra polish really :)

In the works (Jer?) What kind of navigation would you prefer? Is forward/backward and a directory list (like flashy PHP frontend) enough? Do you want such buttons scattered on the page? A directory button, perhaps? Web design is surely not my strength...

Yes, that's the effect of putting new skin on an old body: old submissions simply don't have that information available separately. Tests submitted and processed after the commit (not more than two so far, I think) don't have this problem. I didn't want to complicate the code with conditionaly emitting the links; those tests are old and of limited interest only. Hope we'll get new binaries soon.

D'oh, aesthetics... ;) -- Feri.

I can't believe I didn't think of this before, but the test results really should be sorted differently. I would prefer to have all failed tests at the top, so one could see easily which ones need to be fixed. It would also be nice if the author of a test got an email whenever a test failed. regards, Jakob

Not being an addition but a change, I'd like to hear others' opinion on this matter. My personal feeling is that losing alphabetical ordering on test names isn't worth it, as color monitors are fairly common nowadays. So vote for the change!
It would also be nice if the author of a test got an email whenever a test failed.
Finding out the author of a test isn't easy, it requires some digging into CVS. On the other hand, I'd choose an opt-in method instead. But it's a separate project anyway, the present machinery has pretty much nothing to facilitate this. The summary.txt files are easy to parse and available by HTTP, so one could use them to get the figures. -- Feri.

I agree, it's not worth losing alphabetical ordering.

And we can't just do it, we need opt-ins, etc. Not worth it IMO. -- Dimi.

But if I were to implement an opt-in scheme, you would be ok with it? regards, Jakob

I wouldn't be opposed to it, but I'd advice against expanding so much effort for such little benefit. We have so much to do, it's not like we're looking for stuff to kill time :) -- Dimi.

I'd vote for tests staying in the same relative position from run to run (be that alphabetical or whatever).

One possibility is to send an email to the wine-devel list when something breaks (but only the one!). There were mixed reactions to this, for WRT, so I filtered all the emails and double-checked before forwarding them. Paul.

This is what I had in mind: * We need a page under http://www.winehq.org/site/status (in the right-hand box) which should contain: -- an explanation for the entire winetest business -- ditto for winrash (http://winrash.sf.net) -- pointers to where they can download them (tests & winrash) -- how they can help by actually running them (winrash is preferred) -- instructions on how to install winrash -- a legend for the test pages -- links to the last 10 most recent results * Also, http://test.winehq.org/ should contain: -- a short description of the results -- a link to the http://www.winehq.org/site/status, for full details -- the above mentioned legend for the results -- a summary with links to all test results (for bonus points, display them in calendar form). -- Dimi.
