Each night we execute all the unit tests automatically. The result is sent by
email to one of the developers, who (at his discretion) forwards it to the
mailing list. Said developer may not read his email obsessively (especially
on the weekend) so there might be some latency in the process. For more

The nightly build/tests process
---------------------------------------
The user ``lisa`` runs a cronjob on the computer ``boltzmann``.
This happens nightly.
The cronjob executes the script ``~/www/nightly_build/do_nightly_build_theano``.
This script performs a an "hg pull -u" of theano (and pylearn too).
Then it executes something like
The user ``lisa`` runs a cronjob on the computer ``ceylon``, this
happens nightly. (To have the crontab executed, the ``lisa`` user must
be logged into ``ceylon``, Fred leaves a shell open for that.)
.. code-block:: bash
THEANO_FLAGS='unittests.rseed=<SEED>,mode=DEBUG_MODE' /usr/bin/nosetests --with-coverage --cover-package=theano --cover-package=pylearn
in the updated ``theano`` directory.
The output is emailed automatically to one of the developers.
This line is executed with a several fixed ``SEED`` values in DEBUG_MODE. It
is executed in FAST_RUN and FAST_COMPILE with just one SEED value.
The cronjob executes the scripts
``~/nightly_build/do_nightly_build_{theano,pylearn,deeplearning}``.
These scripts perform an "hg pull -u" of theano (and pylearn, and
DeepLearningTutorials too), and execute nosetests (in various settings).
We can't email directly to the mailing list as it is emailed as the root user.
We haven't yet found a way to have google groups accept email from a user without sending an email to it.
As we don't have root control from this domain, we won't receive the email.
We haven't pursued the option of configuring the ``lisa`` account to send
email from an official gmail account.
The output is emailed automatically to the `theano-buildbot`_ mailing list.
Also, to have the crontab executed, *the ``lisa`` user must be logged into
``boltzmann``*.

In a nutshell: Fred keeps a shell open on boltzmann at all times, gets the
email, and forwards it to the mailing list when something interesting shows up
in the report.
