[Buildbot-devel] custom scheduler for parallelism

[Greg MacDonald]

Hi Pierre,

The getSchedulersAndProperties method is just what I was looking for! Thanks a lot!

Hi,
The Trigger step now has a getSchedulersAndProperties customization point, which can allow you to create the same build several times, but with different parameters as properties.

You can see an example in buildbot_travis:

I wonder if you could share the snippet of your current configuration related
to your question?
