Mandriva Testcases

Well, after some discussion on cooker and, quite frankly, needing a resource myself to speed up security update testing (particularly looking for regressions), we’ve re-implemented “Testzilla”. Sorta. Instead of integrating with bugzilla, we’ve used the mediawiki framework. The reasons for this many. The biggest reason is to make the “Testzilla” as accessible as possible to [...]

Bugzilla 3.2rc1 is live on qa.mandriva.com

Seven weeks ago I setup a local copy of Bugzilla 3.2rc1 to test the upgrade/migration from 3.0.5, using the templates and data from Mandriva’s bugzilla. Tonight it went live on qa.mandriva.com.

Subversion, MediaWiki, and Bugzilla

Found this fantastic article about how to setup Subversion, MediaWiki, and Bugzilla to be nicely integrated. The article is really well done, and I’ve adapted most of it to the Annvix wiki and bugzilla, but the subversion integration will be a little problematic (or at least not as full as it could be) because the [...]
