[Buildbot-devel] sharing data among builders (build steps)

[Stefan Seefeld]

Hello,

I'm trying to set up a system where one builder compiles and tests a
package, and another builder (part of a 'Dependent' scheduler) constructs
a test report from a set of test results (previously compiled in the first
builder).

What is the suggested way for these to share their data ? Should the testing
builders upload the test results to some common place or should the reporting
builder download them ?
Is there some way for both builder types to share variables such as their
respective workdirs etc. that I would use for the data transfer ?

Thanks,
		Stefan
