[Arsperl-devel] arsperl: more stuff for the list

[Jeff M. <Jef...@Re...>]

Release planning:

I'd like to see us have some discussion and agreement about what "features"
will get into the next release(s) and target dates for these.
Doesn't have to be exhaustive, just something for we developers to
synchronize around.

Support for the unpublished upcoming 6.3 release of the AR system is an
obvious feature
for a future arsperl release

Testing

I'd like to see a test for every arsperl api call we support in the test
suite

Supported platforms

I'd like to see us publish a statement about the supported versions of the
Remedy
API that a particular release of arsperl supports.
E.g., for the upcoming 1.82, I think we should make the explicit statement
that it
supports the 5.x, and 6.0.x code lines.

Builds / tests on supported platforms

I'd like to see us have automated builds / test runs on the supported code
lines.
I have access to every released version of the remedy  API, and with some
planning,
I might be able to get a couple of old machines that we could use to do
regression
testing against several versions of the API and running servers, at least on
win32.

The idea here is that I'd set up 5.1.2, 6.0, and 6.0.1 machines, and every
time we
have a commit to the repository, the code would get built and the tests run
on all
3 of those machines.

Thats all for now...
