Our home-grown autobuild systems has a few disadvantages compared to other periodic

  • Based on inflexible shell scripts
  • All-or-nothing approach to testing (can only test all platforms at once, can't easily re-check a single failing build)
  • Output formatting issues (ie, checking quickly whether tests pass or fail, how many failed, etc.)

See also issue #33.

CDash (same authors as CMake) is a possible replacement for Autobuild widely used in the community. We could evaluate CDash through their hosted service: https://my.cdash.org

I have a proof of concept implementation of cdash in #2587. Output is shown in https://my.cdash.org/index.php?project=Charm%2B%2B.

To test this out, you can run the cdash/run_autobuild.sh script in the above PR.
