Buildbot Roadmap

Here is a vague list of upcoming release goals, features, projects.. just some general notes on what I want to get done and a rough order for them.

• 0.7.5 (released 10-Dec-2006): done:
  • SvnPoller
  • Monotone (no tests)
  • slave<->master filetransfer
  • BonsaiPoller/TinderboxMailNotifier
  • multi-owner Locks
  • The Great BuildStep Renaming
  • IStatusLog.readlines
  • BuildEPYDoc/PyFlakes
  • buildslaves get stuck on reconfig
  • less-destructive reconfig (i.e. don't interrupt running builds, just wait until the builder is done)
  • #twisted IRC bot was offline
  • SF#1517975: show log lines during reconfig/start/restart
  • FileUpload/FileDownload
  Not done:
  • pbstatus wants improvement
• 0.7.6:
  • slave-availability + real load-balancing
  • The Great Email Parsing Cleanup
  • Implement some kind of HTML refresh switch to appease that nice mob outside with all the pitchforks
  • sharedping (SF#1500669)
  • Tests for Monotone
  • Add bzr
  • Build.insertStep() (SF#1200396)
  • Send mail to admins of missing buildslaves (SF#1200399)
• 0.8.0:
  • web parts
  • more web status pages
  • alienbrainz (#1195466)
  • vss (#1469923)
  • ETA overhaul (SF#1203905)
  • Define Builders with instances, not dicts
  • Add Codeville
  • Add py.test, pylint steps
  • Add more gcc/perl/java steps
• 0.9.0:
  • SQL status storage (at least SQLite, maybe MySQL too)
  • Multiple project support (rerun Buildbot tests if either Python or Twisted change, subscribe to their buildmasters, cache results of upstream builds)
  • IM status plugins
  • Trac plugin
  • Parse test results
• 1.0.0:
  • User handling (walking through status plugins to notify specific users)
  • Problem tracking
