648800 - Get at least one Mobile test run going on Cedar

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 645168

(Release Engineering :: General, enhancement)

Description

[Phil Ringnalda (:philor)]

We're using Cedar as a tryserver for mozilla-central, but Cedar doesn't run any mobile tests, only mobile builds, so half the time we merge to mozilla-central, every single test on mobile turns orange, and we desperately cast around for someone who can guess at which of six or ten or thirty pushes might have been the one to produce the useless failure logs, which never ever say why it doesn't start.

Sorry, I failed to realize we don't run them on try, so mobile by definition isn't tier 1, and we're free to break it.

Comment 2

RESOLVED WONTFIX for now?

Comment 3

[Mike Taylor [:bear]]

I would like to find out from Aki how much trouble this would be - having the cedar branch have this would help the devs out a lot.

Comment 4

[Aki Sasaki (not active)]

We absolutely want this.
This is why I've been asking Bear what suite(s) have been going reliably green.
We don't have an answer yet, but if we find at least one, we should enable it on Try and Cedar.

A subset, if not a dup of bug 645168.

I was getting a list together and then this past 4 days of orange threw it all out the window.

went back thru the tinderbox build list (from April 2 - April 6) and found the following tests were solid green:

tsspider, tdhtml, ts, tsvg, jsreftest and crashtest

tpan and mochitest were intermittent orange
