test-manual/ptest.rst: detail the exit code and output requirements

2026-01-26T18:54:18+00:00

A ptest must emit at least one test result on the console, as this is required by the testimage class (which ignores the exit code). ptest-runner on the other hand, ignore the output and only cares about the exit code. Add these two items as requirements for a ptest to be valid.

test-manual/intro: remove Buildbot version used

2025-05-28T15:46:32+00:00

The version has changed now (3.10.12 as of writing). Avoid having to maintain this information by removing the version info from the intro. Also fix a typo ("uses now uses") and give a link to yocto-autobuilder2.

2025-01-24T15:49:28+00:00

We don't run reproducible-builds on specific distros anymore, but on a distro at random depending on what is available on the Autobuilder. Fix the link to this builder and remove distro specific ones.

Update autobuilder URLs to valkyrie

2025-01-24T15:49:28+00:00

We have moved to Valkyrie which is hosted on https://autobuilder.yoctoproject.org/valkyrie. Update the URL in the documentation. Also, the YOCTO_AB_URL macro was used in a single location in the documentation so replace it by the :yocto_ab: custom extlink and remove the macro.

2025-01-09T16:41:04+00:00

In the same fashion as the previous commit ("ref-manual/packages: move ptest section to the test-manual"), move the runtime testing section of the development tasks manual to the test environment manual. Add a link to it from the test-manual/intro document.

ref-manual/packages: move ptest section to the test-manual

2025-01-09T16:41:04+00:00

[ YOCTO #15106 ] It makes more sense to document ptests in the test-manual. Since ptests are still related to packages, keep a link to ptests from packages.rst to the test-manual.

reproducible-builds.rst: show how to build a single package

2025-01-09T16:41:04+00:00

Add a bit to the "Can we prove the project is reproducible?" section to show how OEQA_REPRODUCIBLE_TEST_TARGET can be used to test a single package (rather than the world build), as this may be useful for maintainers.

reproducible-builds.rst: document OEQA_REPRODUCIBLE_TEST_TARGET and OEQA_REPRODUCIBLE_TEST_SSTATE_TARGETS

2025-01-09T16:41:04+00:00

They are used to fine tune build reproducibility test for different build targets than "bitbake world" and to define which recipes can be rebuild using sstate cache. These are useful when ramping up build reproducibility in complex build configurations where "bitbake world" has too many failures.
