Questions tagged [buildbot]

Buildbot is an open-source framework for automating software build, test, and release processes.

Buildbot supports distributed, parallel execution of jobs across multiple platforms, flexible integration with version-control systems, extensive status reporting, and more.

At its core, Buildbot is a job scheduling system: it queues jobs, executes the jobs when the required resources are available, and reports the results.

A Buildbot installation has one or more masters and a collection of slaves. The masters monitor source-code repositories for changes, coordinate the activities of the slaves, and report results to users and developers. Slaves run on a variety of operating systems.

You configure Buildbot by providing a Python configuration script to the master. This script can be very simple, configuring built-in components, but the full expressive power of Python is available. This allows dynamic generation of configuration, customized components, and anything else you can devise.

The framework itself is implemented in Twisted Python, and compatible with all major operating systems.
