generoso

Notes on the use of the generoso shared test infrastructure (hosted at CSCS) by EasyBuild maintainers.

TODO

• make sure all maintainers have an account on generoso:
  • Adam (adamh)
  • Åke (ake)
  • Alan
  • Bart
  • Damian
  • Davide (invited)
  • Kenneth (kehoste)
  • Miguel (mdiascosta)
  • Mikael
  • Pablo
  • Sam
  • Ward (wpoelman)

Known issues

• (some?) software install directories are not writable for others, and thus forced re-installing doesn't work

Goals

• change setup to have a central shared software stack + separate stacks on top per maintainer

  • ideally central stack only has installations for stuff already merged in develop
  • even more ideally: central stack is auto-updated as PRs get merged

• support for automatically submitting test reports as PRs get an approved review (& pass CI tests)
