Hello!
We are getting close to having Mac OS X 10.7.2 slaves ready for production. These slaves will be running the same hardware spec as the new Rev4 10.6 minis. I have configured the slave with minimal modifications to defaults. We don't expect that all tests on 10.7 to be green on day one. I have verified that the machines run stable with a known good changeset of Mozilla Central.
The changeset that I am running on the machines is generating the following failures for opt builds:
-Mochitest 1/5 - 109477/7/877
-Mochitest 2/5 - 10608/2/346
-Mochitest 4/5 - 114421/2/113
-Mochitest Other - (chrome) 32840/17/141
-Reftest - 6880/5/264
-XPCShell - 1180/4
Fwiw, this means that 0.013% of tests fail on 10.7.
My plan is to finish getting the full compliment of 80 machines set up and running with the same coverage as our 10.6 slaves. We can hide the test suites that have constant orange, but I think we need to continue running these tests to get them green.
I am often asked if this change means that we are building on 10.7 or building with clang. This change is only for *testing* machines, which do not do builds. The builds we are testing are the same bits that we are testing on 10.6 test machines. There is no change (yet) to us building mozilla-central using gcc on 10.6.
My plan is to ask for these machines to be imaged later on today and to put them into production later this week/early next when we have master
Thanks,
John Ford
