Run add-on jobs

Before a final release of Plone core is done, add-ons might want to check if they need any porting effort to make the add-on compatible with it.

For that we have some special jenkins jobs:

• If the add-on targets Plone 5.1: http://jenkins.plone.org/job/test-addon-5.1
• If the add-on targets Plone 5.0: http://jenkins.plone.org/job/test-addon-5.0
• If the add-on targets Plone 4.3: http://jenkins.plone.org/job/test-addon-4.3

Test an add-on

• go to http://jenkins.plone.org
• log in with your github user
• click on the Test add-on against Plone 5.2 job or Test add-on against Plone 5.1 job or Test add-on against Plone 5.0 job or Test add-on against Plone 4.3 job if you are targeting that Plone version
• click on the huge button Build with Parameters Plone 5.2 or Plone 5.1 or Plone 5.0 or Plone 4.3
• paste the add-on git URL for the add-on that you want to test on the ADDON_URL field, for example https://github.com/collective/collective.cover.git
• (optionally) type the branch you want to test the add-on against on the ADDON_BRANCH field, by default it will be the master branch
• click on the Build button

Note

For the jobs to work properly they need to get the add-on name out of the URL, for that, the last path of the URL will be used, i.e. https://github.com/my-org/my-cool-repo.git or https://gitlab.com/another-org/project/something/else/my-cool-repo.git If not the add-on name can not be guessed with a regular expression.

GitHub integration

A comment will be added on the latest commit on that branch once the job finishes.

Mail integration

When the jenkins job is finished it will report by mail to the user that started the jenkins job.

On the mail, the status of the job will be provided.
