Why Testing of a Release Artifact Matters

For an apache project, a VOTE on a release candidate is a very important process.  By voting (particularly for PPMC members and committers), you are saying to the world that "yes, I have download, verified and tested using the project's procedure for testing".  Your +1, 0 or -1 vote is an indication of the success of the steps listed.

The more time that each individual spends reviewing the artifacts, the higher confidence we can have in both the release itself and our ability to pass an IPMC vote later on.  Remember, we, as a podling, are going to be held to a higher standard for our releases!  The IPMC (and our mentors) are looking for us to show that we understand what it means to have a high quality release.

Note

Since we have graduated from the incubator, the git remote URL thats embedded in the original DevCloud image is incorrect.  Before following the step below, ssh into the devcloud image (run "ssh root@localhost -p 2222" and password is "password") and edit /opt/cloudstack/incubator-cloudstack/.git/config to modify the URL from from https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf/*incubator-*cloudstack.git (https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf/*incubator\-*cloudstack.git) to https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf/cloudstack.git

Once that's done, exit from your ssh session back to your local system.
