The nightly and continuous build/test of ITK is essential to its survival. The ITK Dashboard presents dashboard submissions from the ITK community. The dashboards represent unique configurations of hardware platforms, operating systems, compilers, compiler options and ITK options.


Policy

Each dashboard shall present a unique combination of hardware/compiler/OS, optional features and compiler options. The dashboard submitter will monitor the itk dashboard on a routine basis to make sure that the dashboard is reporting as a nightly or continuous build.

Procedure

The recommended method for dashboard submission is using ctest scripts.

Preparing a Dashboard Submission

  1. Using a cmake GUI (cmakesetup or ccmake), configure the build with the desired options.
  2. Perform a manual build
  3. Run the tests
  4. As of ITK 3.4, the configure process creates a file ${ITK_BINARY_DIR}/CMake/itkSampleBuildTest.cmake that contains ctest commands to build, test and submit a configuration that is the same as your configured build.
  5. Copy the itkSampleBuildTest.cmake file to another directory and rename it.
  6. Edit this file to select the type of submission to Nightly or Continuous
  7. Select the build type
