Have you ever wondered how the results automatically appear in the website? This talk will take you through this journey from the code to the results –the multi-stage, multi-tech release engineering process internals.
There two different streams producing three different regular builds ( not taking into account the special P and Y) with the final bits running four different platforms making it a gruesome 32 hour journey optimized by parallelization. This process has four pipelined stages, with each stage driven by separate owners – one of them being Maven-Tycho configuration and the rest being a combination of shell Scripts, Ant, Junit in sync with multiple Hudson servers (HIPP).
To give a peek into the stages : The first stage has private as well as publicly visible parts, using two stage cloning with bare bones and normal git repos owned by Scripts. Second Stage, owned by Maven-Tycho, is responsible for three maven-tycho builds. This output feeds into the next phase, owned by shell-scripts, which does a few things resulting in a transient pseudo-private download zone which again feeds into the last stage owned by Hudson-Ant-Junit Config and is responsible for actual firing of the tests in multiple platforms. Finally you have the publicly viewable html based downloads and results.

Daniel Megert - The Eclipse Way
45 Mins
Talk
Beginner
This talk will explain the secret of the success of the Eclipse Platform team. The Eclipse Way is an agile software development process that we started right at the beginning when we started to develop Eclipse back in 1999. It was and is used by the Eclipse Platform team and got continuously improved over time. During the session you will hear about all our practices, like milestones, early and iterative planning, continuous integration and the endgame. I will also reveal some of the history behind the Eclipse top-level project.
