Caution
This page documents the latest, unreleased version of Buildbot. For documentation for released versions, see http://docs.buildbot.net/current/.
2.12.1. Upgrading to Buildbot 5.0 (not released)
Upgrading a Buildbot instance from 4.x to 5.0 may require some work to achieve.
The recommended upgrade procedure is as follows:
Upgrade to the last released BuildBot version in 4.x series.
Remove usage of the deprecated APIs. All usages of deprecated APIs threw a deprecation warning at the point of use. If the code does not emit deprecation warnings, it’s in a good shape in this regard. You may need to run the master on a real workload in order to force all deprecated code paths to be exercised.
Upgrade to the latest Buildbot 5.0.x release.
(Optional) Upgrade to newest Buildbot 5.x. The newest point release will contain bug fixes and functionality improvements.
2.12.2. Testing support
The build_files
, worker_env
and worker_version
arguments of
TestBuildStepMixin.setup_step()
have been removed. As a replacement, call
TestBuildStepMixin.setup_build()
before setup_step
.
2.12.3. HTTP service
The following methods of httpclientservice.HTTPClientService
have been deprecated:
get
delete
post
put
updateHeaders
As a replacement, use httpclientservice.HTTPSession
and call corresponding methods on it.
