## Testing infrastructure
<!-- date-check: oct 2022 -->
<!-- date-check: may 2024 -->
When a Pull Request is opened on GitHub, [GitHub Actions] will automatically
launch a build that will run all tests on some configurations
(x86_64-gnu-llvm-13 linux, x86_64-gnu-tools linux, and mingw-check linux).
(x86_64-gnu-llvm-X linux, x86_64-gnu-tools linux, mingw-check linux and mingw-check-tidy linux).
In essence, each runs `./x test` with various different options.
The integration bot [bors] is used for coordinating merges to the master branch.
When a PR is approved, it goes into a [queue] where merges are tested one at a
time on a wide set of platforms using GitHub Actions. Due to the limit on the
number of parallel jobs, we run CI under the [rust-lang-ci] organization except
for PRs.
number of parallel jobs, we run the main CI jobs under the [rust-lang-ci] organization
(in contrast to PR CI jobs, which run under `rust-lang` directly).
Most platforms only run the build steps, some run a restricted set of tests,
only a subset run the full suite of tests (see Rust's [platform tiers]).
If everything passes, then all of the distribution artifacts that were
If everything passes, then all the distribution artifacts that were
generated during the CI run are published.

machine, you can try running the Windows job that failed on CI within your PR
after pushing a possible fix.
To do this, you'll need to edit [`src/ci/github-actions/ci.yml`].
The `jobs` section defines the jobs that will run.
The `jobs.pr` section defines everything that will run in a push to a PR.
The `jobs.auto` section defines the full set of tests that are run after a PR is approved.
You can copy one of the definitions from the `auto` section up to the `pr` section.
To do this, you'll need to edit [`src/ci/github-actions/jobs.yml`]. It contains three
sections that affect which CI jobs will be executed:
- The `pr` section defines everything that will run after a push to a PR.
- The `try` section defines job(s) that are run when you ask for a try build using `@bors try`.
- The `auto` section defines the full set of tests that are run after a PR is approved and before
it is merged into the main branch.
For example, the `x86_64-msvc-1` and `x86_64-msvc-2` jobs are responsible for
running the 64-bit MSVC tests.
You can copy those up to the `jobs.pr.strategy.matrix.include` section with
the other jobs.
You can copy one of the definitions from the `auto` section to the `pr` or `try` sections.
For example, the `x86_64-msvc` job is responsible for running the 64-bit MSVC tests.
You can copy it to the `pr` section to cause it to be executed after a commit is pushed to your
PR.
The comment at the top of `ci.yml` will tell you to run this command:
Then, you can commit the file and push to GitHub. GitHub Actions should launch the tests.
```sh
./x run src/tools/expand-yaml-anchors
```
After you have finished your tests, don't forget to remove any changes you have made to `jobs.yml`.
This will generate the true [`.github/workflows/ci.yml`] which is what GitHub
Actions uses.
If you need to make more complex modifications to CI, you will need to modify
[`.github/workflows/ci.yml`] and possibly also
[`src/ci/github-actions/calculate-job-matrix.py`].
Then, you can commit those two files and push to GitHub.
GitHub Actions should launch the tests.
After you have finished, don't forget to remove any changes you have made to `ci.yml`.

Although you are welcome to use CI, just be conscious that this is a shared
resource with limited concurrency.
Try not to enable too many jobs at once (one or two should be sufficient in
most cases).
