Hey folks,

Gluster test infrastructure needs a bit of attention. We have committed a lot of code in the last couple of years, but we have not scaled our infrastructure at the same rate. Lately, the signs have become alarming and it calls for attention.

We have scheduled a hangout[1] to educate new Devs about
1. Current Gluster test framework - TAP, prove, include.rc.
2. Challenges
     a. Regression takes a lot of time to run
     b. We have so many non-deterministic tests 
     c. Identifying cause  for test failure takes time
     d. NetBSD debugging knowledge in the community is scarce.
     e. DISTAF: Multinode testing is not integrated with regression yet.
     f. More types of tests to have: upgrade, performance, integration.
     g. unit tests 

Note that agenda is mainly to showcase the current challenges through a medium more informative than email/irc. It is not to discuss possible solutions; that should be done over email on the gluster-devel mailing list.

Hence this hangout is scheduled keeping in view convenience of devs from IST or around. We will have the session recorded for everyone to view at their own convenience. Also we could do the same session for different time zones.

This is for tomorrow, Feb 10th? Or am I misreading this event?
With this short of notice, will we be able to get people to attend? 

Thanks!

Originally this was supposed to be a record and upload to youtube kind of presentation.
We changed it to hangout thinking it could help being a realtime broadcast.

Considering it now, I feel we add no value to the event making it a hangout if it is just a demo.
We need a hangout/irc meeting for discussion.

I will cancel the hangout for now and upload a demo somewhere with the agenda mentioned above.(It would just explain current state)
We can discuss in community meeting today for a better date and time to hold a meeting to discuss solutions for challenges that we mention in the demo.

Thanks for the input Amye.

NOTE: The hangout has been cancelled. We will send invite for the rescheduled session later.
