There are two possible interpretations of "expected failure": either the test *must* fail (exactly the inverse of an ordinary test, with success becoming failure and failure becoming success), or the test *may* fail (with success intended, but failure possible in some environments). Autotools had the second interpretation, which seems more useful in practice, but Meson has the first. Instead of using should_fail, we can put the tests in one of two new suites: "flaky" is intended for tests that succeed or fail unpredictably according to the test environment or chance, while "failing" is for tests that ought to succeed but currently never do as a result of a bug or missing functionality. With a sufficiently new version of Meson, the flaky and failing tests are not run by default, but can be requested by running a setup that does not exclude them, with a command like: meson test --setup=x11_unstable --suite=flaky --suite=failing As a bonus, now that we're setting up setups and their excluded suites programmatically, the gsk-compare-broadway tests are also excluded by default when running the test setup for a non-broadway backend. When running the tests in CI, --suite=gtk overrides the default exclude_suites, so we have to specify --no-suite=flaky and --no-suite=failing explicitly. This arrangement is inspired by GNOME/glib!2987, which was contributed by Marco Trevisan. Signed-off-by: Simon McVittie <smcv@debian.org> |

GTK CI infrastructure
GTK uses different CI images depending on platform and jobs.
The CI images are Docker containers, generated either using docker
or
podman
, and pushed to the GitLab container registry.
Each Docker image has a tag composed of two parts:
${image}
: the base image for a given platform, like "fedora" or "debian-stable"${number}
: an incremental version number, orlatest
See the container registry for the available images for each branch, as well as their available versions.
Note that using latest
as version number will overwrite the most
recently uploaded image in the registry.
Checklist for Updating a CI image
- Update the
${image}.Dockerfile
file with the dependencies - Run
./run-docker.sh build --base ${image} --version ${number}
- Run
./run-docker.sh push --base ${image} --version ${number}
once the Docker image is built; you may need to log in by usingdocker login
orpodman login
- Update the
image
keys in the.gitlab-ci.yml
file with the new image tag - Open a merge request with your changes and let it run
Checklist for Adding a new CI image
- Write a new
${image}.Dockerfile
with the instructions to set up a build environment - Add the
pip3 install meson
incantation - Run
./run-docker.sh build --base ${image} --version ${number}
- Run
./run-docker.sh push --base ${image} --version ${number}
- Add the new job to
.gitlab-ci.yml
referencing the image - Open a merge request with your changes and let it run
Checklist for Adding a new dependency to a CI image
Our images are layered, and the base (called fedora-base) contains all the rpm payload. Therefore, adding a new dependency is a 2-step process:
- Build and upload fedora-base:$version+1
- Build and upload fedora:$version+1 based on fedora-base:version+1
