====== Daniel Verkamp: Automated regression testing ====== ===== Journal Week 2 ===== ==== Monday, June 1 ==== ==== Tuesday, June 2 ==== Got a working BuildBot master and slave set up on a Debian machine; notes on [[soc:2009:dverkamp:notes:buildbot]]. It is currently running at http://pine.drv.nu:8010/ (although it might be down temporarily sometimes as I work on it). So far, it is checking out the latest gPXE source from Git and building it (see the build logs on the BuildBot web interface; currently this is an incremental build with no make clean step, but that can easily be changed). ==== Wednesday, June 3 ==== === Linux serial console === Experimenting with Linux serial console for testing purposes; in conjunction with qemu's -serial stdio and -nographic, this should allow easy automated testing of Linux kernel booting. Example: (append to kernel command line; this line works fine for qemu) console=ttyS0,115200 === mkbootfs === Building a basic Linux environment with [[http://git.etherboot.org/?p=people/mcb30/mkbootfs.git|mkbootfs]]; need to install uClibc first, so I am setting up a toolchain with [[http://buildroot.uclibc.org/|Buildroot]].
