@mkuznyetsov please provide update on RC status of the Che serer and related containers / maven artifacts

[mkuznyetsov]

RC images have been built and ready for prerelease testing @dmytro-ndp
https://ci.centos.org/job/devtools-che-che-release-candidate/12/

[dmytro-ndp]

Pre-release testing Jenkins jobs have been started on https://ci.centos.org and CRW CCI.
We are expecting test results in few hours.

[dmytro-ndp]

Current pre-release result against Multiuser Eclipse Che 7.11.0.RC, which includes:

• quay.io/eclipse/che-server:rc
• quay.io/eclipse/che-keycloak:rc
• quay.io/eclipse/che-theia:7.11.0
• quay.io/eclipse/che-theia-endpoint-runtime-binary:7.11.0
• quay.io/eclipse/che-devfile-registry:7.11.0
• quay.io/eclipse/che-plugin-registry:7.11.0
• quay.io/eclipse/che-plugin-artifacts-broker:v3.1.1
• chectl:next
• che-operator:nightly
• centos/postgresql-96-centos7:9.6

1. Most of Java selenium tests passed on minishift 3.11 but two tests failed:

• ProjectStateAfterRefreshTest.checkRestoreStateOfProjectAfterRefreshTest:77->checkFilesAreOpened:90 » Timeout
• ProjectStateAfterRenameWorkspaceTest.checkProjectAfterRenameWs:95->checkFilesAreOpened:111 » Timeout
  It requires further investigations.

2. OS OAuth E2E tests failed on minishift 3.11 https://ci.centos.org/view/Devtools/job/devtools-che-rc-ocp-oauth-test/30/console
   OS OAuth E2E tests have also failed starting from 26th March on nightly job 'rolebindings.authorization.openshift.io "exec" not found' error when start workspace with OS credentials on minishift #16534
   It requires further investigations.

3. Rolling update tests passed on minishift 3.11 https://ci.centos.org/view/Devtools/job/devtools-che-rc-rolling-strategy-test/30/

4. Happy path tests, Vert.x, Java Maven, Python devfile and Git SSH flow tests passed

• against MultiUser Eclipse Che 7.11.0 without TLS support on minikube 1.1.1 with operator installer: test report;
• against SingleUser Eclipse Che 7.11.0 with TLS support on minikube 1.1.1 with helm installer: devfiles tests report, Git SSH tests report.

[dmytro-ndp]

There is possible blocker we should try to reproduce in Eclipse Che 7.11.0.RC: #16512

[dmytro-ndp]

Flacky Java selenium tests have passed at second try on minishift 3.11:

ProjectStateAfterRefreshTest.checkRestoreStateOfProjectAfterRefreshTest
ProjectStateAfterRenameWorkspaceTest.checkProjectAfterRenameWs

[dmytro-ndp]

@nickboldt, @l0rd, @ibuziuk: it's seems we have a blocker for release of Eclipse Che 7.11.0.RC: an issue 'rolebindings.authorization.openshift.io "exec" not found' error when start workspace with OS credentials on minishift.
WDYT?

[dmytro-ndp]

• GitHub OAuth integration has been tested successfully with Eclipse Che 7.11.0.RC on OCP 3.11;
• we wasn't able to reproduce Restart workspace fail (OpenShift Dedicated, minishift)  #16512 on minishift and OCP 3.11, but it has been reproduced reliably by others, so it's a blocker for release of Eclipse Che 7.11.0.RC.

[nickboldt]

I would rather release with a known bug and fix it ASAP after (then do a 7.11.1) than hold up the release past Tuesday. @l0rd @ibuziuk would you agree?

[l0rd]

Reading the comments on the issues it looks like the issue is not always reproducible and we don't know the root cause yet. Is that right @vparfonov? I agree with @nickboldt to release 7.11.0 and a provide a fix once we have one.

[vparfonov]

Yes, it's not always reproduced, especially if QE can't reproduce it during testing we definitely should release 7.11.0

[dmytro-ndp]

@mkuznyetsov: could you, please, share the status of release?

[tolusha]

che-operator and chectl are released
