== About jenkins.debian.net
http://jenkins.debian.net is pretty much *work in progress*, (hopefully) doing something useful since October 15th 2012.
`git clone git://git.debian.org/git/users/holger/jenkins.debian.net.git`
Virtual hardware sponsored by http://www.profitbricks.com - currently it's just a server (a nice one, with 4 cores and 6 GB memory, thanks a lot!), but in future there will be installation tests on "real" (virtual) hardware and thus more VMs will started on demand as well.
Some stats are available using link:http://jenkins.debian.net/munin/jenkins-month.html[munin-plugins for jenkins].
=== Feedback
I love to get feedback on this! Please join #debian-qa on irc.debian.org to report bugs or give other feedback! Or send an email to debian-qa@lists.debian.org if you prefer mail.

=== ToDo
There is still a lot of work left, check the current link:http://jenkins.debian.net/userContent/todo.html[ToDo list].
== Jobs being run
Remember, this is still pretty much work in progress. If you can think of ways to improve the usefulness of certain jobs, please do give feedback!
Installation tests with g-i, the graphical version of d-i, the debian-installer.
* g-i-installation_sid_daily_lxde
** sid installation of LXDE desktop with daily build sid image
* g-i-installation_wheezy_lxde
** wheezy installation of LXDE desktop with weekly build wheezy image
* Debian Edu instllation of specific profiles and suites
** g-i-installation_squeeze-test_debian_edu_standalone
** g-i-installation_wheezy_debian_edu_workstation
=== debian-installer jobs
* d_i_build_* - there is one job for each git repo referred to in http://anonscm.debian.org/viewvc/d-i/trunk/.mrconfig?view=co
Each job pdebuilds the master branch of its git repo on every git push in a sid environment. (If the architecture(s) specified in debian/control are not amd64,all or any the build exits cleanly.)
** while these jobs are triggered on commits, the SCM is only polled every 6min to see if there are new commits.
* d_i_manual - builds the full installation-guide package with pdebuild in sid on every commit to svn://svn.debian.org/svn/d-i/ matching these patterns:
'/trunk/manual/debian/.\*', '/trunk/manual/po/.\*', '/trunk/manual/doc/.\*' and '/trunk/manual/scripts/.\*'
** while this job is triggered on commits, the SCM is only polled every 15min to see if there are new commits.
* d_i_manual_*_html - builds a language (on wheezy) on every commit of svn/trunk/manual/$LANG with "make languages=$LANG architectures=amd64 formats=html". On successful build, d_i_manual_$lang_pdf is triggered.
** while these jobs are triggered on commits, the SCM is only polled every 15min to see if there are new commits.
* d_i_parse_build_logs - parses logs from http://d-i.debian.org/daily-images/build-logs.html daily, to give them a bit more exposure.
** this job is run daily.
=== chroot-installation jobs
Installation tests inside chroot environments.
* chroot-installation_housekeeping:
** make sure chroots have been cleaned up properly
** runs at 05:00 UTC and triggers the bootstrap jobs on success
* $distro-bootstrap jobs:
** just `debootstrap $distro` (install a base Debian distribution $distro)
** there is one job for *sid* and one for *wheezy*: chroot-installation_sid_bootstrap and chroot-installation_wheezy_bootstrap
** plus there is chroot-installation_squeeze_bootstrap_upgrade_to_wheezy, which bootstraps *squeeze* and upgrades that to *wheezy*
** on successful run of the bootstrap job, six $distro-install(+upgrade) jobs are triggered.
* $distro-install jobs (and $distro-install+upgrade jobs):
** `debootstrap $distro`, install a *$set_of_packages* (and upgrade to *$2nd_distro*)
** these $set_of_packages exist: 'gnome', 'kde', 'lxde', 'xfc', 'full_desktop' (all four desktops plus vlc evince iceweasel chromium cups build-essential devscripts mplayer wine texlive-full asciidoc vim emacs) and 'develop'
*** install is done with `apt-get install`, except for 'develop' where `apt-get build-dep` is used to install the build dependencies of these packages.
=== webcheck jobs
* three jobs for running webcheck against www.debian.org, www.debian.org/News and www.debian.org/security
* several webcheck jobs for running again various debconf.org websites
These jobs are only run on the first day of each month.
