I believe our conversation this morning on IRC covered this sufficiently. In summary, fully documenting and ensuring it's possible to recreate the issues found on the dashboard is a great start. Also consider instructing folks how to get and use the subunit file results, how to view them (trv perhaps), and linking to the readthedocs site rather than a raw file in bzr. Finally, it's important to mention the caveats of attempting to recreate old image results and encouraging folks to test and worry about results from current images that can be reproduced with the current packages.Nicholas,We'd like to add some content to this wiki to include how the autopilot tests are executed in CI (which is a question we often receive). This is to help resolve questions about how developers should run tests now that QA is gating on autopilot test results.We're working on updates to the README file we maintain for describing how to use the CI tools: https://code.launchpad.net/~canonical-ci-engineering/ubuntu-test-cases/testing-docs/+merge/251507 <https://code.launchpad.net/%7Ecanonical-ci-engineering/ubuntu-test-cases/testing-docs/+merge/251507>At a minimum, we like to reference the CI README on the wiki. Do you mind providing some reviews and guidance on messaging this to the community without adding confusion?Thanks, Francis -- Francis Ginther Canonical - Ubuntu Engineering - Continuous Integration Team
Also, as suggested we should link this information from developer.u.c to make it available to a wider audience, in addition to announcing it publicly on the mailing list. Finally, I can help make sure the core app developers themselves directly receive this information.
A question for you that is yet unanswered. If someone has trouble, to whom or what should they turn for help? This can be different depending on a public request vs someone from the core apps developer community who is working on shipping code.
