Re: [jbosstools-dev] 3.3.1 / 5.0.1 - more JIRAs coming / latest respin almost done

Hi Nick, if there is a new respin for these, it's not possible to perform new build re-test in time (this week). For small-mid versions like 5.0.1 expected procedure is: 1. All issues in JIRA for 3.3.1 are fixed first or postponed 2. Then QE Build for is delivered 3. QE is testing a build (we need 1 week approximately for a build) - no more new JIRA fixes during this period! 4. If non-trivial tests pass, then sign-off & 1:1 respin to GA, if not then new JIRAs are created and we are back at step 1 5. GA is put to CSP and basic verification is done by QE Currently we almost break all those rules which is not good for smooth testing process. I know there are be PTO & other planning reasons. Still we definitely need to avoid similar situations next time. Mainly step 1 was not fulfilled and not all JIRAs has been fixed or postponed first and some fixes are still coming under QA phase. For QE it's really impossible to use a new build several times in one week and provide consistent testing and test results. And another expectation that is valid for small-mid updates is that dev phase on branch is done when QE build is coming. Thanks for understanding, regards, Jirka On 07/11/2012 04:27 AM, Nick Boldt wrote:
