Re: Travis now tests ghc directly

Hi,

I just added a .travis.yml file to GHC master. This means that every push will be validated automatic and for free by travis; you can check the build status at https://travis-ci.org/ghc/ghc/builds

It is not a full validation. In particular, * it skips DPH * it does not build dynamic libraries and no dynamic executables * does not build haddock or generate documentation * only runs fast tests, and no performance tests

This way we stay under the 50 minuite limit.

Failures are reported to me, and I’ll manually report relevant breakage to you. It is also configured to mail to ghc-builds@haskell.org, but I don’t see these messages there. Maybe some mailing list admin needs to whitelist mails from Travis CI ?

I’ve also added a link to it from http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/, including a nice icon showing the current build status.

Heh, cool, just added that thingy to the GitHub front page. Thanks for this awesome feature, Joachim! Gabor

If you have that .travis.yml file in your branch, travis will also test these.

My unofficial ghc-complete repository is therefore obsolete, I stopped updating it.

Greetings, Joachim
