769484 - datazilla serialization should be better

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 744405

(Testing :: Talos, defect)

Description

[Jeff Hammel]

Currently, for (example) ts, the results are nice floats, but the
results_aux are strings:

  "results_aux": {
    "shutdown": [
      "657", 
      "605", 
      "689", 
...

tpcyles and tppagecycles in test are clearly integers.  However, they
are also reported as strings:

  "testrun": {
    "date": "1340920379", 
    "options": {
      "responsiveness": false, 
      "rss": false, 
      "shutdown": true, 
      "tpchrome": true, 
      "tpcycles": "10", 
      "tpmozafterpaint": false, 
      "tppagecycles": "1", 
      "tprender": false
    },

This is from the server results, or when we are posting results to the serer? Where should someone look to start fixing this one?

Comment 2

[Jeff Hammel]

This should be fixed along with https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=744405 . The patch is already up, just needs review

Comment 3

[Jeff Hammel]

...and this should probably be duplicated against that on landing

Comment 4

should be fixed: http://hg.mozilla.org/build/talos/rev/195293d7404c
