I probably didn’t mention, but packaging autotest is been a tough task, mostly because:
- Autotest uses a “self contained directory” design
- Makes sense for its purposes, but no go for packagers
- Web interface depends on gwt, which is hard to package properly
As a result, it’s been a long ongoing task with upstream to make it more packaging friendly. But, we’re almost there. I promise
I’ve started to assemble my TODO list for the FUDCon days. It shouldn’t be that difficult to get this done between one presentation and another:
- https://github.com/autotest/autotest/issues/88
- https://github.com/autotest/autotest/issues/89
- https://github.com/autotest/autotest/issues/140
I hope to come up with more stuff, let’s see…
