From bug 1727780:

For the future, we need this documented better- how to run the tests, what binaries are used and how they are updated. After spending ~4 hours on this, I haven't found anybody online today that knows how this works- some great pointers and tips. I had asked almost a week ago in #perftest what is needed for upgrading browsertime and the general consensus was run everything on try- it appears we need a bit more than that- and running 2000+ jobs on try takes a lot of time from our limited pool.

The current documentation is published located at https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/rev/fdcee847713a33b5e2b4175bb3c72d4aa2215515/testing/raptor/raptor/perfdocs/index.rst#201-211 and published to https://firefox-source-docs.mozilla.org/testing/perfdocs/raptor.html#browsertime

It appears that the "Upgrading Browsertime In-Tree" heading isn't being displayed, which makes it difficult to discover and share. We should also provide more advice around what to run on try, perhaps even maintaining a convenient preset.
