962363 - Start generating an additional build daily for Buri at 8am in Taipei's timezone

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Release Engineering :: General, defect)

Description

[Jason Smith [:jsmith]]

Background

In the QA work week, we realized that we can a lot of value if we have two builds generated per day - one at the time we currently generate a Buri build at + a build at 8am in Taipei's timezone. The reasoning for this is that we currently invest resources to do on device UI automation twice a day, so having the ability to test on distinct builds for each automation run gets a lot of value to catch bugs quicker.

This will run *all* m-c b2g nightlies at 0402 and 1602 PST.

Oh, I missed the other branches in comment 0.

This is going to cause significantly more load, since it will launch all b2g nightlies on 3 branches.

There is a problem with the builds now (presume caused by this).

It is picking up new Gecko changes but not the latest Gaia(git) changes.

New Taipei timezone build:
<project name="gaia.git" path="gaia" remote="mozillaorg" revision="09064f43116d1b965cb3ab6516fa0f1fa3c98a4c"/>

Usual PST timezone build  - this one has the same Gaia commit 
<project name="gaia.git" path="gaia" remote="mozillaorg" revision="09064f43116d1b965cb3ab6516fa0f1fa3c98a4c"/>
