The BuildBot is a system to automate the compile/test cycle required by
|
|
most software projects to validate code changes. By automatically
|
|
rebuilding and testing the tree each time something has changed, build
|
|
problems are pinpointed quickly, before other developers are
|
|
inconvenienced by the failure. The guilty developer can be identified
|
|
and harassed without human intervention. By running the builds on a
|
|
variety of platforms, developers who do not have the facilities to test
|
|
their changes everywhere before checkin will at least know shortly
|
|
afterwards whether they have broken the build or not. Warning counts,
|
|
lint checks, image size, compile time, and other build parameters can be
|
|
tracked over time, are more visible, and are therefore easier to
|
|
improve.
