kjellander@webrtc.org de2a76fcf9 Try server and buildbot scripts now using Chromium scripts.
- compatible with depot_tools try commands.
- old build master is converted to use Chromium scripts, according to
http://www.chromium.org/developers/testing/chromium-build-infrastructure/getting-the-buildbot-source/forking-your-buildbot
- slaves can now be run out of a plain checkout, no local configuration needed.

Also added files to make it possible to use tools as a separate checkout.

BUG=None
TEST=Runs on local machine with remote slaves. I've successfully submitted try jobs with both git try and gcl try commands.

WebRTC buildbots
================
These buildbot setups are based on how Chromium uses Buildbot scripts with their
own customizations of startup and master-slave configurations.
The directory layout and the files inside build_internal/masters are copied from
Chromium's repository and modified for our needs according to the guidelines at
http://goo.gl/kPSSv
One nice advantage with using this, is that all slaves run out of the box by
just syncing the WebRTC tools and the third-party dependencies. No additional
dependencies are required except a Python install.
Setup a tools workspace:
========================
mkdir webrtc-tools
cd webrtc-tools
gclient config http://webrtc.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/tools
gclient sync
cd tools/continuous_build
svn co http://src.chromium.org/svn/trunk/tools/depot_tools
echo pass > build/site_config/.bot_password
To run the build master:
========================
cd tools/continuous_build/build_internal/masters/master.webrtc
make restart
To run the try master:
======================
cd tools/continuous_build/build_internal/masters/master.tryserver.webrtc
make restart
To run a slave:
===============
cd tools/continuous_build/build/slave
There are some variables that can be set for flexible development testing:
* TESTING_SLAVENAME : Simulates the slave name. Since slave names are
based on hostnames, they must be overridden using
the this variable in order to run the slave on the
local machine.
* TESTING_MASTER : The master to connect to. We usually use 'WebRTC'
or 'TryServer'.
* TESTING_MASTER_HOST : The host the master is located at.
Default: localhost
* RUN_SLAVE_UPDATED_SCRIPTS : Set this to False to avoid checking for updates
during startup.
For Windows, make sure to add the --use_buildbot_8 flag to the run_slave.bat
in order to make the tests execute properly.
Examples:
---------
Connect to a running build master:
* Linux and Mac:
TESTING_SLAVENAME=webrtc-cb-linux-slave-1 TESTING_MASTER=WebRTC make restart
* Windows:
set TESTING_SLAVENAME=webrtc-cb-linux-slave-1
set TESTING_MASTER=WebRTC
run_slave.bat --use_buildbot_8
Connect to a running try master:
* Linux and Mac:
TESTING_SLAVENAME=linux-trybot-1 TESTING_MASTER=TryServer make restart
* Windows:
set TESTING_SLAVENAME=linux-trybot-1
set TESTING_MASTER=TryServer
run_slave.bat --use_buildbot_8
