6 | |||
7 | XWiki has a [[Continuous Integration>>http://www.martinfowler.com/articles/continuousIntegration.html]] setup to ensure XWiki's code is built at all times (i.e at every code check in). This also allows developers to only build the module they want and they'll have the other XWiki module dependencies downloaded from the [[XWiki remote repository>>http://nexus.xwiki.org/nexus/#view-repositories]]. | ||
8 | |||
9 | We use the following tools: | ||
10 | |||
11 | * [[GitHub>>https://github.com/xwiki]] is used as our [[SCM>>http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Source_Code_Management]] | ||
12 | * [[Maven>>http://maven.apache.org/]] is used for [[building XWiki>>Community.Building]] | ||
13 | * [[Jenkins>>http://jenkins-ci.org/]] is used as our Continuous Integration (CI) tool (set up at [[http://ci.xwiki.org/]]) | ||
14 | * [[Docker>>https://www.docker.com/docker-community]] is used to run Jenkins agents (and incidentally to execute some functional tests over various configurations) | ||
15 | |||
16 | We use a technique called [[binary dependency build>>http://web.archive.org/web/20090423073100/http://blogs.codehaus.org/people/vmassol/archives/000953_binary_dependency_builds.html]] which allows to check out only the module a developer wishes to work on and he'll automatically get the latest fresh binary dependencies built by our CI tool. | ||
17 | |||
18 | = Jenkins Agent Image = | ||
19 | |||
20 | XWiki has its own [[Jenkins Agent Docker image>>https://github.com/xwiki/xwiki-jenkins-slave]] that is used by Jenkins master to spawn agents. | ||
21 | |||
22 | = Jenkins Pipelines = | ||
23 | |||
24 | == Main Pipeline == | ||
25 | |||
26 | We have developed a {{scm project="xwiki-jenkins-pipeline" path="vars/xwikiModule.groovy"}}Jenkins Pipeline script{{/scm}} to build XWiki projects (can be used for core and contrib projects). It has the following features: | ||
27 | |||
28 | * Automatically build branches when new branches are added (or Pull Requests). Automatically stop building branches when they are removed from the SCM. | ||
29 | * Automatically use the right version of Java (and proper memory configuration) | ||
30 | * Use Jenkins's Xvnc plugin to have a Display for functional tests | ||
31 | * Use the "deploy" maven goal for "master" and "stable-*" branches only and "install" for the rest | ||
32 | * [[Attach the screenshot>>http://massol.myxwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Blog/AttachFailingTestPipeline]] of a failing XWiki Selenium test to the failed test's description | ||
33 | * Check for false positives for known cases of failures not related to code + [[check for test flickers>>http://massol.myxwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Blog/FlakyTestTool]] | ||
34 | * Send mails for build failures | ||
35 | |||
36 | To use is for a project, add a ##Jenkinsfile## with the following minimal configuration: | ||
37 | |||
38 | {{code language="groovy"}} | ||

59 | // It's assumed that Jenkins has been configured to implicitly load the vars/xwikiModule.groovy library which exposes | ||
60 | // the "xwikiModule" global function/DSL. | ||
61 | // Note that the version used is the one defined in Jenkins but it can be overridden as follows: | ||
62 | // @Library("XWiki@<branch, tag, sha1>") _ | ||
63 | // See https://github.com/jenkinsci/workflow-cps-global-lib-plugin for details. | ||

73 | == Clover Pipeline == | ||
74 | |||
75 | Used to generate the global test coverage for XWiki (over all XWiki Standard repositories). See [[Test Coverage>>Community.Testing.TestCoverage.WebHome]]. | ||
76 | |||
77 | Example usage: | ||
78 | |||
79 | {{code language="groovy"}} | ||
80 | import org.xwiki.jenkins.Clover | ||
81 | node('docker') { | ||
82 | new Clover().generateGlobalCoverage([ | ||
83 | [baseline: "20171222-1835", fail: false], | ||
84 | [baseline: "20190101-2330", fail: true] | ||
85 | ]) | ||
86 | } | ||
87 | {{/code}} | ||
88 | |||
89 | == Docker Pipeline == | ||
90 | |||
91 | Used to run functional tests using Docker in various supported configurations. See the [[defined Jobs>>Community.Testing.DockerTesting.WebHome#HCIJobs]]. | ||
92 | |||
93 | Example usage: | ||
94 | |||
95 | {{code language="groovy"}} | ||
96 | import org.xwiki.jenkins.DockerTests | ||
97 | |||
98 | def branchNames = ['master', 'stable-10.11.x'] | ||
99 | def branches = [:] | ||
100 | |||
101 | branchNames.each() { | ||
102 | branches[it] = { | ||
103 | def label | ||
104 | if (it.contains('10.11.x')) { | ||
105 | label = 'docker-outside-docker' | ||
106 | } else { | ||
107 | label = 'docker' | ||
108 | } | ||
109 | node(label) { | ||
110 | new DockerTests().executeDockerSupportedTests(it) | ||
111 | } | ||

120 | == Prerequisites == | ||
121 | |||
122 | * You need to have an account on [[maven.xwiki.org>>http://maven.xwiki.org/]] (this is the machine hosting XWiki's remote repository) and you'll need a key setup on your account there so that you can ssh to it without having to enter username or password. | ||
123 | * You need to have an administrator account on [[ci.xwiki.org>>http://ci.xwiki.org/signup]]. | ||
124 | |||
125 | == Functional tests == | ||
126 | |||
127 | === Debugging === | ||
128 | |||
129 | **Connect to the XVNC server** | ||
130 | |||
131 | * Establish a SSH tunnel between your computer and the server on port 5901 (//ssh -L 5901:localhost:5901 [email protected]//) | ||
132 | * Use your favorite VNC client to connect to the XVNC server | ||
133 | ** Host : localhost | ||
134 | ** Display : 1 | ||
135 | ** Password : same password as for XWiki SAS wifi access points | ||
136 | * See the functional tests live. |
