This section documents all the procedures and tools used for releasing the gCube system. It is intended as the central access point to information about the integration, validation, and distribution of the system for developers, software testers, release managers, and for any other actor involved in the development of the system.
Given the large size of the system, its high degree of modularity and the number of developers involved in the implementation, the Work Package 7 which is responsible for the distribution of gCube has defined a set of procedures that formalize and simplify the integration, test, documentation and distribution of the software by coordinating the different actors involved in the release process. Section Release Procedures provides a detailed description of each procedure by listing actors and their responsibilities for each step of each procedure.
Activities in release procedures are highly automated and supported by several tools. The tools offer support in the:
- configuration of source code (SCM tools);
- release preparation phase (Trac);
- software integration phase (ETICS, BTRT, the Building Infrastructure)
- the testing phase (Checkstyle, Findbugs, ETICS, the Testing Infrastructure)
- the documentation of the system (Wikimedia);
- the distribution of the system (gCube Distribution Site).
Section Testing Plan provides documentation for the support to gCube software testing carried out during integration of system's releases and in continuous integration builds.
