Bug Description
Test results are currently accessible in two (three?) ways:
- sqlite, a 1.6GB file with random updates and accessible only through HTTP: not syncable
- web page, scrappable
- something internal?
I'd like to access all tests "currently" relevant for migrations. At the moment, I can scrap the webpages but I have doubts that it will be considered friendly to the web server if I do that several thousands of times every 20 minutes. This is why I am looking for something bulk, that can be synced/
I can think of at least two approaches but don't know the constraints that exist.
- atomically-updated file (JSON or any other format) with the date in its name: size should be small enough that fully downloading each time is fine, and there should be no concern about per-day cutoff since it will be required to keep past days locally anyway
- same as above but with a different granularity: week, month, or even one for the every series?
- append-only file
Thanks
