1 # Some overall notes on how this works
3 # * We smoke using the system provided latest, and custom built "oddball perls"
4 # The reason for not having a blanket matrix is to conserve travis resources
5 # as a full DBIC depchain isn't cheap
7 # * Minimum perl officially supported by DBIC is 5.8.3. This *includes* the
8 # basic depchain. On failure either attempt to fix it or bring it to the
9 # attention of ribasushi. *DO NOT* disable 5.8 testing - it is here for a
12 # * The matrix is built from two main modes - CLEANTEST = [true|false].
13 # - In the first case we test with minimal deps available, and skip everything
14 # listed in DBIC::OptDesps. The modules are installed with classic CPAN
15 # invocations and are *fully tested*. In other words we simulate what would
16 # happen if a user tried to install on a just-compiled virgin perl
17 # - Without CLEANTEST we bring the armada of RDBMS and install the maximum
18 # possible set of deps *without testing them*. This ensures we stay within
19 # a reasonable build-time and still run as many of our tests as possible
21 # * The perl builds and the DBIC tests run under NUMTHREADS number of threads.
22 # The testing of dependencies under CLEANTEST runs single-threaded, at least
23 # until we fix our entire dep-chain to safely pass under -j
25 # * The way .travis.yml is fed to the command controller is idiotic - it
26 # makes using multiline `bash -c` statements impossible. Therefore to
27 # aid readability (our travis logic is rather complex), the bulk of
28 # functionality is moved to a script. More about the problem (and the
29 # WONTFIX "explanation") here: https://github.com/travis-ci/travis-ci/issues/497
32 # Smoke only specific branches to a) not overload the queue and b) not
33 # overspam the notification channels
34 # Furthermore if the branch is ^topic/ - the custom compiled smokes will
35 # not run at all, again in order to conserve queue resources
