Nice idea. It may be also interesting to add a section on this page to list could be realize for the automation. Like 2 sections: - What has been already done? - What would be nice to have? It can give some ideas for people who want to help. WDYT? On 24/01/2015 12:04, vincent(a)massol.net wrote:

Hi devs, We’re starting a new year and new development cycle (the 7.x one). It’s time to reflect back on what we did and what we wish to achieve and also what we wish to do better. I think it wouldn’t do any harm to the xwiki project that we continue automating stuff (more build/release process automation, more development automation, more documentation automation, more test writing automation, etc). Basically anything that makes us better at delivering the XWiki software. If you agree with this, I’d like to propose that we start filling a wiki page on xwiki.org dedicated to what we achieved. I’ve started such as page at http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Drafts/AutomationAchievements (the idea will be to move it somewhere in dev.xwiki.org if this proposal is accepted). At the moment I’ve put only a single item that I remember we did on the automation topic but the idea is that each one of us (us = the xwiki community at large) updates this page when he/she implements some new automation stuff. The goal of this page is several: * show appreciation to whoever helped improve XWiki’s automation * realize that we’re doing work on automation and see how much we achieve in a year. And thus be able to compare year to year and see how we fare. * provides emulation to all of us to do even more in this domain WDYT?

+1 It`s also a good way to share knowledge and maybe drive some more technical traffic towards xwiki.org since other people might be searching for the same solutions we are applying :) Thanks, Eduard On Mon, Jan 26, 2015 at 12:06 PM, vincent(a)massol.net <vincent(a)massol.net> wrote:

I’ve added the section on http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Drafts/AutomationAchievements However: 1) be careful that it may be more interesting to send a mail about your idea on the devs list for discussing it rather than just dumping it there. 2) we all have lots of ideas, that’s not the main issue. What we need is people who implement automation ideas! :) If you check JIRA and the mailing list for PROPOSAL you’ll find plenty of ideas already listed but not implemented yet. 3) What could be even more interesting would be to add an “automation” label to JIRA issues about automating stuff. I’ve started doing that for the 2 I implemented over the week end: http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XCOMMONS-730 and http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XCOMMONS-731 This way we can see the full list of: http://jira.xwiki.org/issues/?jql=labels%20%3D%20automation Then you can filter to see: what was already done, what’s still open to do. Thanks -Vincent
