Jimmy, Development has a Linux box which
we used to trouble shoot a Cosmos issue near the end of i8. JT still has
access to this, and we can readily share this within CA.

Ruth,
Thanks, that covers the IBM
side… In regards to your other question, we will need an updated
Dependency diagram for i10.
Mark,
Should we start to think about a
Dependency diagram for COSMOS 1.0?
Jack / Don,
Any thoughts from the CA & Compuware
end in regards to Linux environment?
Thanks,
Jimmy Mohsin

COSMOS i9 QA - platform considerations
Hi Jimmy,
I
don't expect that each person will need a dual OS environment. Instead, my
expectation is that one Linux machine can be shared by our internal development
team. (Where "internal development team" is David
Whiteman, Ali Mehregani, Hubert Leung, Sheldon Lee-Loy. ) I
took the to-do this morning to get access to a Linux machine for those four
developers.
If QA
finds a bug on Linux:
1.
First the developer attempts to recreate the bug on Windows.
2. If
the bug can be recreated on Windows then the developer fixes it on Windows and
unit tests it on both Windows and Linux.
3. If
the bug cannot be recreated on Windows then the developer debugs and fixes it
on Linux alone.
Because
we work with Java code it is my expectation that the majority of bugs found
will be reproducible on Windows. Since those four people know that they'll be
sharing a Linux machine, they will communicate with each other before accessing
that machine to ensure that they don't damage each other's work on the machine.
If this plan doesn't work in practice then we'll reassess the situation and
adapt, but for now this is what I'm aiming for.
BTW,
not sure if anyone else has brought this up yet, yet another detail to hash out
in i10: which version of Linux will we support? And Windows? And JDK? I believe
that people may have seen the email that Saurabh sent out earlier stating that
we are deferring the move of the builds to the eclipse server from i9 to i10
because we don't want to destabilize the iteration build. Part of that
destabilization risk is that the JDK on the eclipse server is different than
the version that's on the IBM servers. In i10 I'd like to find out if it's it
correct to assume that everyone should be testing with the JDK version that's
on the eclipse server.
Thanks,
Ruth.

[cosmos-dev] RE: COSMOS i9 QA - platform considerations

Given that Linux is a must do platform for closing i9, is the
hardware / software environment in place across the board to resolve Linux
defects in both the Dev and QA space?
I raise
this question since in the call this morning, someone stated that if QA finds a
bug on Linux, the Developer should ensure that the bug is addressed on BOTH
Windows / Linux. If we end up doing this, this implies the need for dual
OS environments for the Development AND QA teams….
Thanks,
Jimmy Mohsin

Thanks for the updates Domenica!
I missed today’s community meeting as I had to attend
some other meeting. However, I attended Architecture meeting. Focus was made
mainly defects and ERs in it.
Thanks,

Srinivas-
As agreed at today's Cosmos Community meeting:
- Linux support is mandatory for this iteration.
- QA will provide daily report/findings on WIKI.
- QA will send notification to Cosmos team when
daily update is posted.
- If QA encounters any showstoppers, they are to
request an emergency meeting with team.
