[ovirt-devel] [Announcement] new manual job for ost

[Daniel Belenky]

Hi all,

The oVirt infra team is proud to announce the *new manual job for
ovirt-system-tests.*
Link: http://jenkins.ovirt.org/job/ovirt-system-tests_manual/

The new job supports a new feature: testing oVirt upgrades!
The job can test upgrading current oVirt release from a previous release
with various options, see table below for full available testing matrix.

The new upgrade jobs will be soon added to the experimental flow and will
be part of the gating done to oVirt tested repo ( i.e any rpm which breaks
upgrade won't reach the tested repo ).

*How to use?*

   - In order to use the manual ost job, you first have to build RPMs from
   your open patches. Just add a comment to your open patch and write *'ci
   please build', *and you'll get a link to the job that builds your patch.
   - Go to the manual job, and click '*Build with parameters'*.
   - Choose the oVirt version you wish to test (should match to the oVirt
   version of your patch).
   - Choose the suite type from the drop-down menu. The Available options
   are:
      - *Basic*
      - *Upgrade from release*
      - *Upgrade from prev release*

versionprevreleaserelease
master 4.0 4.1
4.1 4.0 4.1
4.0 ---- 4.0


   - Add your custom URLs: here you should supply the link to the Jenkins
   job that built your patch.
   - Choose the fallback repo: This is the repo that the Job will fetch the
   RPMs from. Your RPMs will be used on top of those RPMs.
   - Choose Lago version: (Unless you want to test Lago's new features,
   just use the table version)
   - Click on *Build*, and let the job run. You'll get all the relevant
   logs from the suites under the '*Build artifacts*' directory when the
   job is done.

For more detailed review of using the manual job, please refer to Verifying
an oVirt patch with ovirt-system-tests

Please feel free to contact the infra team on infra at ovirt.org for any more
questions you have.

Sincerely,
