Is there a reason why a try scheduler is not implemented? I find it awesome for TDD!
On my normal workflow I can do this, even without commiting changes:
./HELPER test some.test ./HELPER test-remote sol-10-sparc some.test
test-remote just wraps buildot try --builder --properties --wait --vc
Because it requires setting up proper credentials to access control the feature.
But there are already credentials for the HTTP status page... why not configure the same credentials for buildbot try?
The credentials for the HTTP status page are there to prevent annoying spurious builds. The credentials for `buildbot try` need to be serious, secure credentials because they prevent attackers from submitting arbitrary code to execute on the buildslaves. Basically, it's more work. If someone wanted to set it up right, I don't know of any reason we wouldn't want to allow it. Though that may just be because we haven't ever used it so I haven't yet learned the reasons it's undesirable to have enabled. ;) Jean-Paul
What I would like to hear is something like this:
* buildbot try is too simple, does not work with our workflow and for our project... we don't want to spend time implementing it
or
* buildbot try could help, it still has some problems and we don't have time to fix issue 1, 2, 3, ... etc
