Vampire

Vampire is a remote package testing tool written in Python. It takes an Autotools generated tarball, uploads it on several machines, configures it, runs a check sequence (usually make distcheck) and returns the results. It is designed to be flexible enough to run checks on different systems and environments.

Overview

Vampire is a very young project, it has not be tested on many configurations, and requires important code cleanups. Here are the current supported features :

• Remote access by ssh.
• Source upload by scp, link (for nfs use) and custom command (wget for example).
• Configurable pool of machines (environment variables, configure flags, ...).

Available software

A pre-release is available (version 0.2a) here:

• Bzip2 compressed tarball.
• Gzip compressed tarball.

But you may also check out the CVS version of the project on Savannah.
