1813991 - turn off win/aarch64 in CI as we have adequate coverage with manual QA

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Testing :: General, task, P1)

Description

[Joel Maher ( :jmaher ) (UTC -8)]

as per bug 1708374, we will turn off our CI coverage of win/aarch64; this can be revisited later in 2023 or early 2024.

I see these steps:

1. remove scheduling of task: anything windows related in this query
2. ensure no jobs scheduled on other branches, if so, uplift patch from #1 to other branches
3. remove all other code from tree related to win10 (here and in manifests)
4. hand off to relops and turn off the win/aarch64 device(s) and free up the machine slots (which can be used for phones or a reduced contract)

This should be fully completed by the end of February, ideally sooner than later.

this will need to be uplifted to beta/release. Probably beta, then let it ride the trains to mozilla-release. The other cleanup in step #3 can be done

Beta/Release Uplift Approval Request

• User impact if declined: n/a
• Is this code covered by automated tests?: No
• Has the fix been verified in Nightly?: Yes
• Needs manual test from QE?: No
• If yes, steps to reproduce:
• List of other uplifts needed: None
• Risk to taking this patch: Low
• Why is the change risky/not risky? (and alternatives if risky): hands on QA is more complete than CI, and we are not finding regressions in CI; this just turns off the CI job.

will uplift to beta, then let natural merge to release

• String changes made/needed:
