Regular catchup, 02 6246-3169 Usual time - 12:00

Agenda

• status reports.

Minutes

• Still no news from CABB hardware folks. MarkW goes on leave next week.

• Discussion of how we will track what has been tested and when. See also 63

• Discussion of small bug in the way miriad task versions are printed now; fails to compile when we have the branch checked out. 64

• Perhaps the miriad-cabb binaries could be generalised to miriad-test?

• We can put test scripts in /nfs/atapplic/miriad/tests/cabb but what about the test data?
  • We can instrument the scripts to whine about datafiles they need but don't have.
  • We will need to set up a directory with the test datafiles. Probably on kaputar?
  • We will want to be able to easily copy the test data files to a new machine and rerun the tests. So we need a canned procedure to rsync the files to wherever we are working. We could stuff the file into svn and distribute that way...ugh. Slow.

Actions

• Vince to talk to Tim Cornwell about approaches to regression testing in ASKAP
• Mark to prepare his GRB data processing scripts for use as the first set of regression test scripts.
• Vince to discuss release process and setup of test code with Mark Calabretta
