[jira] Resolved: (RIVER-291) Cannot build QA tests using the
supplied make files
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/RIVER-291?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]
Brian Murphy resolved RIVER-291.
--------------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
Manually tested on ubuntu 2.6.17
Built the River source and jars
Built the QA tests source and jars
Ran executed the tests according to the instructions in
the newly added file, <svn>/qatests/trunk/qatestsREADME.txt

Re: Cannot build QA tests using the supplied make files
Posted by Nigel Daley <nd...@mac.com>.
Brian, thanks for this fix and the README!
I've now setup Hudson to build the qatests and run a category of
tests (joinmanager) which takes about 1 hour. We should really come
up with a category of smoke tests that can be run with each checkin
by Hudson. In the meantime feel free to suggest a different existing
category of tests.
Also, I've switch Hudson to be true CI for River. It will now check
for SVN changes every 15 minutes and build/test if there are changes.

Cheers,
Nige
