CI jobs for readable-stream group

[gibfahn]

Setting up initial jobs for readable-stream WG in #657

I'll create a streams-admins group following our process. That group will have edit access, streams will have run access.

@nodejs/build let me know if there are any objections.

@gibfahn let me know if you need any help on this

[gibfahn]

Created the streams-admins team and added @mcollina and @calvinmetcalf (and made both maintainers).

I don't know enough about the WG to know who else will be active in maintaining Jenkins jobs. If anyone else should be added comment in this thread.

[gibfahn]

Gave the two teams the appropriate access to readable-stream-continuous-integration, @mcollina please confirm you still have configure access.

It is all working. I removed some unneeded machines and the ones that suffer from #785.

Some things that I would like fixed:

• some sort of aggregated test results, so that we know what failed across the environments, currently it reports no result
• we need to be able to trigger this for all the Node.js versions at the same time, ideally from 0.8 to 8, and maybe even the latest nightly, can you help set that up as well?
• can we post the status of the build to github as well?

Overall it works very well, I had to fix a configuration on our side. If you want to test, use the core-ci branch (nodejs/readable-stream#308).

Looks like @nodejs/streams didn't have build access (@nodejs/streams-admins did have edit access) because it's actually @nodejs/Streams with a capital S. Github lowercases everything, but the plugin doesn't. I've given both permutations (streams and Streams) access.

we need to be able to trigger this for all the Node.js versions at the same time, ideally from 0.8 to 8, and maybe even the latest nightly, can you help set that up as well?

What I've been doing for other projects is adding a pipeline that runs the job with a list of versions, current job is here: https://ci.nodejs.org/view/All/job/readable-stream-pipeline/. It doesn't do anything magical, it just splits the NODE_VERSIONs string by space, and spawns a job with each NODE_VERSION.

BTW, if you want to add or remove platforms you modify the MACHINE label expression. If you want to run on a subset of platforms as a one off you modify the MACHINES parameter.

[mcollina]

How can we have some form of aggregated test results for each platform and some reporting for the pipeline?

My jenkins fu is extremely bad and out-of-date :(.

[gibfahn]

Sorry, I should have mentioned that I'm still working through your other requests!

[mcollina]

thanks @gibfahn!

Closing due to long period of inactivity. Feel free to re-open if this is a thing. I'm just trying to close stuff that has been ignored for sufficiently long that it seems likely it's not something we're going to get to.
