Week 3 - A Test Scheduler for the MySQL Build Farm Initiative - Mon, 11:38 PM Jun 16 2008

KEY ACCOMPLISHMENTS LAST WEEK

• Finished the integration of new data collection features in Skoll. The Skoll Client can now collect runtime information about MySQL while running the MySQL tests.
• Collected runtime information for MySQL compiled with different configuration flags and began analyzing the collected runtime data.

KEY TASKS THAT STALLED LAST WEEK

• Had connection problems with BitKeeper (MySQL's source control) servers while testing the new Skoll Client.
• Skoll currently gets MySQL source code from BitKeeper, however, not every revision in the BitKeeper can compile/run perfectly. Right now I have to find a "good" revision and manually request it with the Skoll Client. I need to get access to MySQL push-build tar balls to solve this bad revision problem.

KEY CONCERNS

• More than ever, the future progress of the project depends on having push-build tar balls.

TASKS IN THE UPCOMING WEEK

• Analyze the collected runtime data from Skoll Client and research ways to process these data.
