We skipped a week of updates due to the Easter Holiday. I’ve also moved the timing of these update emails/posts From Friday afternoon to Monday so that more people will see them. Look for your releng/relops highlights on Mondays now going forward.

Improve CI Pipeline:

Aki submitted a pull request for generated async code+tests for taskcluster-client.py, with 100% async test coverage. (https://github.com/taskcluster/taskcluster-client.py/pull/49)

Callek got us running the mozharness-tests (CI tests for mozharness) [they used to run on Travis-CI, and that we lost when we moved Mozharness in tree[. Based on intree code with taskcluster. These tests only run when someone touches mozharness code. (http://bugzil.la/1240184)

Operational:

Callek closed out a bunch of old bugs that related to foopies, pandas, and a few lingering ones about tegras. Since we have retired that infrastructure in favor of Android Emulators.

Kendall, Jake, and Mark worked to patch much of our infrastructure against the git 0-day vulnerability. They’re finishing up the tail end of those machines that have significantly less exposure/risk.

Rob landed patches to increase the stability of our Windows AWS AMI generation, making that process more robust. There’s some additional work to be done around verifying certificate downloads to fix the remaining issues we know about.

Nick landed some patches to improve our AWS recovery time (by about an hour) when we terminate many instances at once.

Amy has initiated a purchase for another 192 mac minis to expand our existing OS X 10.10 test pool in support of e10s and other load.

Release:

We released Firefox 45.0.1esr, 38.7.1esr as well as Firefox and Fennec 45.0.1, 46.0b2 and 46.0b4. Check out the post-mortem notes for more details: https://wiki.mozilla.org/Releases:Release_Post_Mortem:2016-03-23

See you next week!
