Re: CI/CD and testnets proposal for discussion tomorrow

Dave, 

Can you elaborate on the proposed direction of travel regarding testnets? Is the idea that HL will run a CE instance of Gitlab in some infrastructure or that gitlab.com will be the instance? If the latter where are the runners going to live infrastructure wise? If in gitlab.com's infrastructure that would be fine for CI from our (Burrow's) perspective, but won't be ideal for testnets due to CI timeouts. 

For burrow we have extensive helm charts, gitlab CI configs, and testnet / stressnet mechanisms built already which we operate from Monax's self hosted Gitlab in our Kubernetes cluster. So in general this direction of travel gets a ++ from me. If we (burrow maintainers) have access to running testnets / stressnets in a Kubernetes cluster that's not Monax's via Gitlab CI we would be very happy campers indeed.

Thanks in advance,
~Casey

Sounds cool. Perhaps we could do an evaluation period were projects can evaluate using the gitlab setup to determine if it is sufficient to replace existing tooling, with the intent to report back on the experience to the TSC. Is Ursa already using this setup? How much effort would it take from HL staff to do such a evaluation period?

Hi TSC,

I put together a summary with details on what I propose we do to rework the HL CI/CD pipeline. The proposal can be found here: https://wiki.hyperledger.org/display/HYP/Software+Delivery

As usual, comment there, discuss here.

Cheers!
