I have some doubts in some places.<br>
<br>1. Improvements to the perl script which manage actual testing (./util/NewNightlyTest.pl)<br> (a). compiling llvm-gcc <br> (b). allowing someone to use an existing tree versus checking out a new one<br><br>
2. The improvements to the email that get sent to the llvm-testresults<br> (a). finding a point in time where some test failed<br> (b). comparing two different sets of test results that aren't just 2 days apart<br>
here if you have any suggestions which help someone analysis test results would be grateful. <br><br>3. Running llvm testsuite for all targets, target variants and operating systems(using an simulator for hardware which is not available) ex:gcc project's compile farm [2]<br>
<br>4. Running Fortran, Ada, C/C++/ObjC tests as well with test results emailed to the llvm-testresults.<br><br>Most of the server side and the database design has already done by "tonic"(IRC nickname at #llvm), so suggestions regarding others would be important, so that we have a fully featured nightly tester .And finally all the php scripts need to be updated according to the required new features. <br>
Thanks in advance. Please add your comments.!<br>Regards,<br>-Rajika<br><br>[1] - <a href="http://llvm.org/nightlytest/" target="_blank">http://llvm.org/nightlytest/</a><br>[2] - <a href="http://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/CompileFarm" target="_blank">http://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/CompileFarm</a><br clear="all">
