overview

1. before_install: get correct versions of addons
2. before_script: perform cmake config
3. script: build the thing, test the thing. on osx, package the thing
4. before_deploy: load artefacts into correct spots
5. deploy: send zip to AWS
6. after_deploy: print messages
7. notifications: send email notifications, gitter notifications

TODOs

.travis.yml

• should use newer versions of xcode

• try language: cpp

• try compiler: gcc, clang

• are QT_PREFIX & QT_PLUGIN_PATH necessary?

• allow testing even when not building qt

• use a separate env variable for TEST, not QT

• check "echo S3 Build Location:" - does it happen?

• check how notifications works

• add slack integration

.travis/before-install-osx.sh

• consider using upgrade instead of update
• remove installation of python

.travis/before-install-linux.sh

• add new versions of gcc
• gcc version can be specified in build matrix

.travis/before-script-osx.sh

• add supernova=ON

.travis/before-script-linux.sh

• consider using Debug if not a release build? (what do other projects do?)

.travis/qpm-prep.sh

• consider removing when switching tests

.travis/script-osx.sh

• just does build phase

.travis/script-linux.sh

• just does build phase

.travis/test.sh

• exports sclang stuff
• runs fix-non-Qt.sh script when qt is false
• calls launch_test.py
• if qt true, calls qpm-test.sh
• TODO: fix non-Qt builds
• TODO: run supernova tests

.travis/package-osx.sh

• just creates an artifacts dir, places zip build in there

.travis/package-osx.sh

• just creates an artifacts dir, places zip build in there

.travis/fix-non-Qt.sh

• moves two files. TODO: can we fix this upstream?

testsuite/sclang/launch_test.py

• tries to launch sclang and checks if there are errors

.travis/qpm-prep.sh

• checks out qpm & CommonTests & CommonTestsGUI

.travis/qpm-test.sh

• calls qpm

EXPERIMENTS

travis/lang-cpp

• set language: cpp
• result: success, but not faster/slower

travis/lang-cpp-compilers

• set language: cpp
• add compiler: clang
• result: failure on clang builds, because QT not set

travis/no-qt-env-vars

• remove QT_PREFIX and QT_PLUGIN_PATH env vars
• result: success
