[jbosstools-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (JBIDE-16970) create mechanism to verify that nightly build is different from previous milestone

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-16970?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13136653#comment-13136653 ] 

Nick Boldt commented on JBIDE-16970:
------------------------------------

True, diffing buildinfo.json requires that there's a previous buildinfo.json against which to diff. 

But this is also true of a p2diff, since you need a previous update site URL against which to diff.

Or are you suggesting you could p2diff your local build against some OTHER local build? If we have another, older local p2 repo built locally, it will also contain a buildinfo.json file against which we could diff.

> After the discovery site build job is done, we should:
> * get a list of JIRAs for a given target fixversion, eg., 4.2.0.Beta1 or 8.0.0.Beta1 *job param* milestone = Beta1, Beta2, CR1, Final/GA (special case)
> * for respins, use *job param* label = "respin-a" or "respin-b" in jira query
> * filter query to only show the components and map those to actual project names - see https://github.com/jbdevstudio/jbdevstudio-ci/blob/master/bin/createTaskJIRAs.py#L83-L107 for mappings
> * install Eclipse from *job param* eclipseBundleVersion = luna.M6
> * install last milestone from *job param* oldURL = http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/updates/staging/JBossTools-4.2.0.Beta1.core/
> * install Eclipse from *job param* eclipseBundleVersion = luna.M6 (in a different folder)
> * install new nightly from *job param* oldURL = http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/updates/nightlycore/4.2.luna/
> * compare installed footprints - see https://github.com/jbosstools/jbosstools-build-ci/blob/master/util/installAndDisplayCompositeSiteContent.sh
> * run p2diff on the two repos - see https://github.com/irbull/p2diff
