Continuing from yesterday's email...

== Day Two ==

Today we spent almost all of the day hacking actual tests out of the
mess that is buildd-slavescanner.txt.

We finished. It was touch and go for a while there.

The reason we bothered at all is because it's exercising APIs that are
we have changed significantly, from being synchronous to being
asynchronous. We split the test changes off into a separate branch,
which you can see here:
  https://code.edge.launchpad.net/~jml/launchpad/buildd-slavescanner-bustage/+merge/36187

Now that's popped off the stack, tomorrow we will return to our next
task: updating all of BuilderSlave's methods to return Deferreds &
addressing the fallout.

There's a diff of what we've done so far and is not yet ready to land:
