@msgilligan:matrix.orgmsgilliganBut that isn't the right place to talk about testing JDK updates.03:23:49
@msgilligan:matrix.orgmsgilliganI wrote a script (in Java!) to pull down the Zulu versions and hashes for updating a specified JDK version, but it’s not quite an auto-updater yet04:31:27

In reply to @msgilligan:matrix.org

What is the situation for automatic testing of JDKs on Nix? I've been looking through the documentation here and the source code of the various packages and it has been a slow learning process.

It would be nice if there was some general documentation on the various JDK packages in Nixpkgs as well as documentation specifically on contributing to the JDK modules such as how to run updaters (where they exist), how to run tests, how to add tests, etc.

Does anything like that exist? If not, where should it go so I can make an attempt to start one or more documents?

I haven't thought about it until now, but it's surprising that there doesn't seem to be any tests for the JDK in particular outside of generic builds/doesn't build
