Add JDK9 testing in Travis #714

Open acoburn opened 7 years ago

acoburn commented 7 years ago

Travis tests the Alpaca code with JDK 8. It would make sense to also test Alpaca against JDK 9. A configuration example is here.

Since the tests may not (probably will not) pass initially, I would suggest adding this configuration to .travis.yml:

matrix:
  allow_failures:
    - jdk: oraclejdk9

I wonder if it would be worth adding tests for openjdk8 while we are at it?

And if testing against Oracle JDK9, what about http://openjdk.java.net/projects/jdk9/, should be available soon too?

This ticket probably isn't the place to formulate policy, but it would be nice to have a "what JVMs is CLAW guaranteed to work with?" policy. Maybe the new technical group could formulate it?

ajs6f commented 7 years ago

Assuming the TAG will take a look at this question, it will still take a while to get around to it. Does it seem reasonable to everyone to immediately add whichever of Oracle JDK9, OpenJDK 8, and OpenJDK9 are currently supported by Travis? Of course we could add them using allow_failures so as not to stat breaking any builds.
