h3. Automated tests AKA nightlies
The "sepia lab":http://ceph.com/docs/master/dev/sepia/ runs automated teuthology tests on a regular basis. They are sometime called the *nightlies*. The schedule of the nightlies is managed by the QE team:
* [[Typica]] (disabled)
* [[Sepia]]
The following script is used in the above crontabs.
<pre>
$ cat /home/teuthology/bin/schedule_rados.sh
#!/bin/bash
# $1 - part
# $2 - branch name
# $3 - machine name
teuthology-suite -v -c $2 -m $3 -k distro -s rados --subset $(echo "(($(date +%U) % 2) * 7) + $1" | bc)/14
</pre>

* suites scheduled to run on current set of supported branches: *firefly*, *giant*, *hammer*, *next* and *master*; *master* runs are used primarily for development purposes, *upgrade* tests are not scheduled to run on master.
* *big* and *powercycle* suites are run manually
h3. Analyze
* See [[HOWTO forensic analysis of integration and upgrade tests]]
* sorting out the environmental noise
* create new bugs for errors for which there is no match in the tracker
* add a link to the failed job in pre-existing issues found in the tracker (useful to figure out the frequency and helps with debug when there are multiple outputs / logs)
h3. The ceph-qa mailing list
The results of the nightlies are published for analysis on the "ceph-qa mailing list":http://lists.ceph.com/listinfo.cgi/ceph-qa-ceph.com/. For a given release, the issues that make a job fail in the nightlies need to be backported with a higher priority to reduce the noise.
