Hey,


We got an image promoted! Image #141 was the one.
We detected another regression on image #140 from this morning (a lot of 
qmlscene crashes like [1]). We found that the regression was laying down 
in at-spi2-core, reverted it, get clearance due to alpha2 freeze and 
then rekick an image. Test results just finishes and show the 
traditional flaky tests.

So, what was new due compared to latest promoted image (#132)? Mainly we 
got:
* fix for the flaky calendar-app AP test \o/
* new version of messaging app with status, retry and delivery 
confirmation of SMS messages
* separation of webbrowser-app webapps container in a separate 
components to be able to get Oxide support
* getting the input method (OSK) not being hidden if app killed
* pile of bug fixes to get click scope better tested and intial work to 
get click app purchases support
* initial work on the scope API to be able to properly starts and 
shutting down them.
* Some application start up time optimization


We are now releasing all the niceness that we prepared but not published 
until we got an image promoted. More news on that in my tomorrow's email :)

*notes_app* (Bill/Zoltan):
http://ci.ubuntu.com/smokeng/trusty/touch/mako/112:20140105:20131223.2/5882/notes-app-autopilot/638428/ 

-> Olivier tried a little bit more on that one (we saw more of setUp() 
function randomly failing). It seems he need help, maybe the SDK team as 
it can toolbar related can help? A bug report to track that is filed as 
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/webbrowser-app/+bug/1270737.

*weather-app* (Nicholas):
http://ci.ubuntu.com/smokeng/trusty/touch/mako/109:20140103.1:20131223.2/5859/ubuntu-weather-app-autopilot/ 

-> Networking failure. This is changing to TWC api, and yes, there will 
need to be some mocking. This is WIP by development team. A big rollover 
to the new API will be landing soon.

*ubuntu-keyboard/maliit crash* (Kevin/Bill):
http://ci.ubuntu.com/smokeng/trusty/touch/maguro/114:20140106:20131223.2/5905/ubuntu-ui-toolkit-autopilot/ 

An incoming ubuntu-keyboard fix is in the releasing pipe :)

*clock-app *(Nicholas):
http://ci.ubuntu.com/smokeng/trusty/touch/maguro/114:20140106:20131223.2/5905/ubuntu-clock-app-autopilot/ 

-> From Nicholas: "No luck in reproducing yet. -- the emulator won't run 
clock atm, investigating. Xnox, I see you seem to have results 
(passing), but I've only gotten crashes."
-> this one refailed today on mako (on test_run_preset which is calling 
test_add_preset): 
http://ci.ubuntu.com/smokeng/trusty/touch/mako/133:20140117:20140115.1/6118/ubuntu-clock-app-autopilot/677464/

Nicholas told: (quoting)
Found several probable causes for these failures. Seems to be a 
combination of the bug below on MIR, and a potential UITK issue with tab 
switching.

Probable MIR bug:
http://ci.ubuntu.com/smokeng/trusty/touch/maguro/130:20140115.1:20140115.1/6087/ubuntu-clock-app-autopilot/671736/
http://ci.ubuntu.com/smokeng/trusty/touch/maguro/126:20140113.1:20140107.1/6050/ubuntu-clock-app-autopilot/664258/
Tab switching:
http://ci.ubuntu.com/smokeng/trusty/touch/maguro/114:20140106:20131223.2/5905/ubuntu-clock-app-autopilot/642628/
Today's run contains an actual test failure possibility, looking into
http://ci.ubuntu.com/smokeng/trusty/touch/maguro/131:20140116:20140115.1/6095/ubuntu-clock-app-autopilot/673039/

*calendar-app* (Nicholas):
http://ci.ubuntu.com/smokeng/trusty/touch/maguro/114:20140106:20131223.2/5905/calendar-app-autopilot/ 

-> This is now released. However, even with the fix, there is still some 
flaky tests (running them doesn't seem to be reproducible): 
http://ci.ubuntu.com/smokeng/trusty/touch/maguro/141:20140121.1:20140115.1/6204/calendar-app-autopilot/

*dialer_app* crash (Bill):
http://ci.ubuntu.com/smokeng/trusty/touch/mako/114:20140106:20131223.2/5903/dialer-app-autopilot/ 

-> The team is looking into it (doesn't seem to happen on the emulator 
though)

*terminal app* (Nicholas):
We had this regression last month, it's on the list as well for blocking 
new terminal app release (keyboard not working with it): 
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-terminal-app/+bug/1257791
-> The issue was investigated and found that konsole qml plugin is what 
needs work. Plugin author isn't able to look at the issue until next 
week, so we're on hold until then.

A new one to add to the "high list" (targeted to dialer-app, but can be 
unity-mir as well), but this one was already in latest promoted image:
*dialer* in call is blanked by lock screen (bfiller)
https://bugs.launchpad.net/dialer-app/+bug/1271210

Cheers,
Didier
