Use of Grid Computing for Debian Quality Assurance
Résumé
Many quality assurance tasks require a lot of computing power, especially when applied to large GNU/Linux distributions such as Debian. We used the french Grid'5000 experimental computer grid to work on such tasks. After describing the QA tests we performed and the framework we used to distribute them over Grid'5000, we provide results showing that such tasks can be of interest for both communities. Possible improvements are also described.
