[4/17/2017 2:29:32 PM] Nick HavocMC: A big thing we need is easy deployment and testing, so wondering how that's gonna work. I remember you saying something about having two branches: a test branch and a live branch. How will that work?
[4/17/2017 2:29:59 PM] Nick HavocMC: I was thinking of something where the test server grabs from the test branch, then when it's working we merge that into deployment branch?
[4/17/2017 2:40:04 PM] Timothy | TadahTech: We could set something like that up but it'd require some custom stuff on my end.
[4/17/2017 2:40:19 PM] Timothy | TadahTech: We couldn't use Jenkins for that. It'd be simple to program but would take some time
[4/17/2017 2:40:24 PM] Timothy | TadahTech: However, that'd be dope
[4/17/2017 2:42:06 PM] Nick HavocMC: Whatever allows us to test easily and deploy easily works for me
[4/17/2017 2:42:13 PM] Nick HavocMC: I do want to make sure we're spending time efficiently though
[4/17/2017 2:42:43 PM] Nick HavocMC: I don't think it's worth it to spend a lot of time on a system like that if it would take a while - with only a few developers I want to make sure we're getting the maximum amount of new content out to the server
[4/17/2017 2:43:40 PM] Timothy | TadahTech: I feel ya. It'd take me 20-25 hours to do. It require some stuff on the plugin side
[4/17/2017 2:45:09 PM] Nick HavocMC: What is the deployment system you made capable of
[4/17/2017 2:45:15 PM] Nick HavocMC: Do we like specify a branch for the github
[4/17/2017 2:45:23 PM] Nick HavocMC: and it pulls and deploys from there
[4/17/2017 2:45:25 PM] Nick HavocMC: or what?
[4/17/2017 2:45:35 PM] Timothy | TadahTech: Yep that's exactly what it does
[4/17/2017 2:45:59 PM] Timothy | TadahTech: And I didn't make it. It's Jenkins
[4/17/2017 2:48:05 PM] Nick HavocMC: A specific branch?
[4/17/2017 2:48:35 PM] Timothy | TadahTech: Yeah
[4/18/2017 9:16:20 AM] Timothy | TadahTech: Looked into it more. I can easily create the other system.

It will pull from test branch
Run the tests in the classpath defined in the "test.yml" file.
If all succeed, it will push that code to master.
If it fails, an email will be sent out (or we interstate with slack and make it easier) what failed.
Then on production server, it detects a change in the master branch and pulls the branch, runs "mvn clean install" on it and then sends out the built jar to the update folder
[4/18/2017 9:16:30 AM] Timothy | TadahTech: From there, the auto updater I made will so it's thing
[4/18/2017 9:17:39 AM] Nick HavocMC: I was more looking to have it tested
[4/18/2017 9:17:47 AM] Nick HavocMC: Then we deploy it ourselves
[4/18/2017 9:17:54 AM] Timothy | TadahTech: I mean if you want less automation that's fine too
[4/18/2017 9:18:43 AM] Nick HavocMC: I think it's easier to just test ourselves than needing to make tons of tests
[4/18/2017 9:19:30 AM] Timothy | TadahTech: Eh not really
[4/18/2017 9:20:04 AM] Nick HavocMC: There'd be hundreds of tests for TMD
[4/18/2017 9:20:14 AM] Nick HavocMC: I don't see a point in writing that
[4/18/2017 9:20:20 AM] Timothy | TadahTech: And so a human doing it would be faster than a computer?
[4/18/2017 9:20:49 AM] Nick HavocMC: What would take forever is writing all the tests
[4/18/2017 9:21:20 AM] Timothy | TadahTech: Also debatable
[4/18/2017 9:22:21 AM] Nick HavocMC: There would be hundreds of tests to write and even then
[4/18/2017 9:22:42 AM] Nick HavocMC: There's really specific stuff I don't see how you could test
[4/18/2017 9:22:57 AM] Timothy | TadahTech: So having someone go through and do every command and interaction would take somehow less time?
[4/18/2017 9:23:09 AM] Nick HavocMC: No - only test what changes
[4/18/2017 9:23:31 AM] Timothy | TadahTech: And you couldn't write the tests that way?
[4/18/2017 9:24:30 AM] Nick HavocMC: I just don't see a point - we're already behind on new content with converting everything. It'd be cool but I think it's more advanced when we needed
[4/18/2017 9:24:56 AM] Nick HavocMC: We have over 1,000 classes at least, many with multiple functions
[4/18/2017 9:25:35 AM] Nick HavocMC: That would be tons to write when we can just test it ourselves
[4/18/2017 9:25:39 AM] Timothy | TadahTech: You're misunderstanding
[4/18/2017 9:26:00 AM] Timothy | TadahTech: But whatever you da boss. Tell me how you want it to work and I'll get it done
[4/18/2017 9:26:25 AM] Nick HavocMC: What would an example test be?
[4/18/2017 9:26:37 AM] Nick HavocMC: Or more what would it do
[4/18/2017 9:28:56 AM] Timothy | TadahTech: You'd write a class. You'd give it some example objects. You call methods with example parameters  and then verify the result is what you wanted it to be
[4/18/2017 9:30:04 AM] Nick HavocMC: How would you write a test in hell night to check if a player when parachuting is being flagged by the Anti Cheat
[4/18/2017 9:31:45 AM] Timothy | TadahTech: Off the top of my head I can't write that logic. Especially not on my phone.
[4/18/2017 9:39:38 AM] Timothy | TadahTech: But that's not something you need to test every single build. Once it works it works
[4/18/2017 9:39:54 AM] Timothy | TadahTech: You're assuming you have to write tests for everything and anything. You don't.
[4/18/2017 9:49:08 AM] Timothy | TadahTech: So tell me how you want auto deployment to work and I'll make it so
