Description 白川間瀬流 2012-10-13 14:55:12 UTC

In case of Bug 421839 it really should be invented that new Release Media should have some testing before they get linked to the "Current" directory.

For example if a new Release Media comes out with the name

install-amd64-minimal-20121013.iso

This media doesn't get into

releases/amd64/current-iso/

rather than to a new place called

releases/amd64/current-test-iso/

and if they pass the test they get moved into current-iso/

The test should include at least:

- The LiveCD have to boot without error messages on a Virtual Machine
- The LiveCD have to boot without error messages on a current Intel System
- The LiveCD have to boot without error messages on a current AMD System

Getting CDs tested is something I'm interested in and already mentioned before a few times, including my presentation on Prague about Testing.
However, until we set up the infrastructure to do it automatically, we can't make progress on this.
