             Summary: travis.yml
                 Key: JENA-1830
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JENA-1830
             Project: Apache Jena
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Andy Seaborne


Jena has several JVM versions in the Travis setup. In addition, the Jenkins server has full build and test runs.

I use Travis (free option) to verify development changes but the build process is not perfect. A complete cycle is 5 travis builds and if any one fails, the job is flagged in error.  The errors are not Jena related - they are build environment issues reflected as maven build problems.

In the last 50 jobs without development failures,  I got 24 green, 22 failed one or two jobs and 4 build system fails. So I get 40% false reports of code failures.

The individual fails were distributed as:
Java8 : 3
Java9 : 3
Java10: 4
Java11: 2
Java12: 10

The problem is that with 5 fairly reliable jobs, the probablity of a "failed" build is increased. This is semi-interactive feedback, unlike Jenkins which is a daily set of builds.

I propose having LTS (8,11, and soon 14).

Jenkins will provide the more complete testing.
