Build Identifier: Eclipse 3.6 (I20100608-0911) I had some problem with "Automated Testing of Eclipse Build". I downloaded the file eclpse-Automated-Tests-3.6.zip and other. After I installed every thing, I couldn't run it. The problem was: the eclipse sdk zip had the wrong name. I had to rename it from eclipse-SDK-3.6-win32.zip to eclipse-SDK-I20100608-0911-win32.zip. I don't know why. I needed a lot of time to find this solution. For the future I think we should change the test.xml to have an idea where the problem is. Could we change in the test.xml the line 62 from <exec dir="." executable="unzip"> to <exec dir="." executable="unzip" failonerror="true"> (add failonerror) Andrew Niefer answered ************************************************************************* The problem comes from the fact that when we are approaching the release, all the builds are named like eclipse-SDK-I20100608-0911-win32.zip. Once a particular build is declared to be the final one, then the zips just get renamed (eclipse-SDK-3.6-win32.zip), but I guess the test scripts still refer to the original name. ************************************************************************* Reproducible: Always
The problems seems to be that the label.properties file which is included in the test zip still contains the old build id and this is the value which is passed into the test.xml file which does the setup. I've changed the values in this file to be "3.6" and the tests ran correctly. Whether the process is manual or automatic, we should add this file to the list of things to change when we promote a build.
