Automated testsuite runs?

Folks!

Most people - including myself, I guess Stefan is the only lightful 
exception - do not let the testsuite run with changes that appear to be 
minor. However, even small changes can break quite a lot and it would be 
helpful if we could find the newly introduced bugs as quick as 
possible... So maybe we could find a way to run automated tests every 
night? We would for sure need a server that checks out new stuff, builds 
it, installs it and finally let's the testsuite run. This would of 
course require some scripting. Aren't there solutions that manage the 
whole procedure? How were they called?

What do you people think? Anyone having access to a suitable server?

Oliver

Would be great to have. I'd like to offer my help to get it running if
we've found some place.

Gump runs continually in various locations, primarily on Apache
hardware, see below.

So they seem to do continuous building. Don't know for sure, though.

Really, I thought they only did the nightly builds? So they can automate 
test runs as well?

Isn't that what the Gump @ Apache is all about? There is lots of
infrastructure exactly for this purpose. Just ask the Gump people or on
infrastructure@apache.org

Stefan,
Thanks for persuing this. I don't know how busy infrasture@ is, but if
you don't get a good response by the beginning of next week let me know.
I'll take it up with the PMC. I know other projects are running
automated testing so we should at least be able to find out what's
currently being done.

I have asked at the infrastructur mailing list, but haven't get an
aswer yet, (only form an other guy who runs test for xindice on
nagoya, and wants to know what's the best plase too)
May be I have to ask again. Or have someone better connections?

I've noticed that Maven generates reports for Unit Tests. This would 
seem to indicate that *someone* is doing automated testing. 
infrastructure@ would probably be a good place to ask. I can poke around 
there if you like. I've had "set up nightly builds" on my todo list for 
awhile, and since Stefan volunteered to do all the work I can try to 
find him a server ;).

Let me know if I should ask around.
