737661 - Stop running tests on the Jetpack tree on Win64

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Release Engineering :: General, defect, P2)

Description

[Phil Ringnalda (:philor)]

Every time a push to the Jetpack repo triggers tests on the Jetpack tree, we assign four Win64 slaves the job of downloading a Win64 debug build from each of mozilla-central, mozilla-aurora, mozilla-beta and mozilla-release to test against.

Oops, we don't build Win64 debug.

We also assign four Win64 slaves the job of downloading a Win64 opt build from each tree.

Oops, we only build Win64 opt on mozilla-central, so three of the four spend a minute plus startup time plus reboot time just to find that out again, every single push to the jetpack repo.

To preface this, I'm not a Python person.

So I have no idea if this is the correct style, does the right thing, or if it even compiles.

That said, it'd be nice to get this fixed, and I think this would be one way to do it.

So, flipping the "'debug':True" on line 974 to "'debug':False" would stop the four debug build runs, yeah?

I'm not quite sure how to stop the three not-mozilla-central tests from running while still letting the mozilla-central one run. Is there some syntax that can prevent certain branches from running on specific platforms in that file?

With bsmedbergs' revised plan, even though we're keeping win64 builds, we're switching off tests. As such we can just fix this by not testing jetpack on win64 at all.
