Ideas / scripts for jenkins chroot tests
Hi. I discussed <URL: http://jenkins.debian.net/ > slightly with Holger
on IRC, and he suggested I sent an email with my suggestion to track it.
A while back, I did chroot based upgrade testing between lenny and
squeeze, for Gnome and KDE, as well as Debian Edu. The scripts and logs
from this work is available in
<URL: http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/debian-upgrade-testing/ >.
I suspect these scripts can be useful as starting points for chroot
tests and perhaps to report changes in the package installation set
after upgrades. There are four scripts:
upgrade-test-cron
The script calling the other scripts.
upgrade-test
A script creating a chroot with lenny and upgrading to squeeze, and
either installing gnome or kde using tasksel.
upgrade-test-debian-edu
A script creating a chroot with Debian Edu/lenny and upgrading it to
squeeze.
upgrade-test-compare-pkgdiff
A script generating a list of package changes between the lenny and
squeeze chroots.
Perhaps you find something useful in it for the chroot jenkins checks?
