779419 - Turn off all tests on UX project branch

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Release Engineering :: General, defect, P2)

Description

[Justin Wood (:Callek)]

Per Bug 772458c#7 we should be good to turn off tests of all kinds on the UX branch. I'll leave it to others to determine if we need any further sign-off or whatever to make that happen though

Thank you for filing this :-)

Would it be useful to still have Talos tests run?  People usually don't run them on try, and I feel like a few memory regressions from new features have shown up more clearly in the initial landing on UX.  But maybe not.

Just merged m-c to ux to test it out. Hopefully it wasn't too soon:

The push to UX still ran the tests. Is there more work that needs to be done here?

Comment 7

[Ed Morley [:emorley]]

buildbot-config landings require a reconfig before the changes take effect.

[Justin Wood (:Callek)]

This made it into production yesterday afternoon.

The latest merge shows no tests being run.
