Jenkins Slave - Flash Player content debugger
Hi,
The Apache SDK uses the mustella testing framework. In order to run tests mustella needs to have the Flash Player content debugger installed.
Links to all flash players here:

Link to download content debug player for windows (3rd link under windows)
http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/updaters/11/flashplayer_11_sa_debug_32bit.exe
Is it possible that this can be installed on the Jenkins windows slave?
Thanks,
Justin

The Windows node is set up for running GUI (like selenium tests), so I
think it should work.

Yes the tests are GUI tests, they run swfs and simulate mouse clicks and key presses and compare screen shots. Can we turn the "interactive" option on for the windows slave or should I be looking at other options to run the tests?
I've disabled the job for now so it doesn't block the queue.
Thanks,
Justin

Since Flash is intended for systems with a GUI, could this be an issue with I/O?
It may not be sufficient for the host to support command-line I/O only.

Hi
I'm still having an issue with the Apache Flash SDK check in test and the windows slave.
https://builds.apache.org/job/Flex_SDK_checkin_tests/
The tests run the flash content debugger with a swf file and should go through a series screen clicking on basic UI components.
Any change that someone could run the tests while watching the slaves screen and tell me what's going on? It just hangs when run from Jenkins.
Thanks,
Justin

:-)
Just tried again and looks like the same result (been running for 5 minutes). The console output (obviously) gives no clues.

It had the downloaded-from-the-web-thus-evil flag set. Please try again.

Thanks for being so prompt.
In the Flex_SDK_checkin_tests job I updated the Jenkins script environment variable like so:
FLASHPLAYER_DEBUGGER=C\:/Program\ Files\ (x86)/Adobe/flashplayer_11_sa_debug_32bit.exe
It starts but just hangs (on the exec task below) and aborts after the timeout of 15 minutes so we do seem to have an issue.
The ant script is basically:
<property name="flash.player" value="${env.FLASHPLAYER_DEBUGGER}"/>
<exec executable="${flash.player}" dir="${basedir}/frameworks" failonerror="true">
<arg value="${basedir}/frameworks/tests/basicTests/BasicTests.swf"/>
</exec>
Running the script locally takes about 1 1/2 minutes.
Any ideas why it might hang? Does the Jenkins script have permission to run that executable?
Thanks again,
Justin

That doesn't seem like an installer, but rather the executable itself?
I stuck it in C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe, hopefully that works for
you.
