Task #742

Updated by Florian Effenberger about 9 years ago

The board agreed on funding a VNC server for daily builds, which needs to be provided. 

 Description from the budget: Allows QA users without Windows (or a given windows version) to use it remotely for testing or bibisecting. As the work item is about getting people to have easy access to daily builds without any local installation, and the "Hackfest images" provide that already, just enabling to VNC on a desktop on those and start LibreOffice would be good. Then people could test on those VMs (instead of doing what people did at Hackfests: compiling, which is actually more challenging). The other task is getting people to use these images. Another topic for the long run is offering these images on-demand for QA triagers or hackers outside Hackfests or BHS. This might be helpful for volunteers with underpowered hardware etc. provided
