Hi Alex,
  From what I've seen of it the PPA system appears nice for just checking if trunk builds, and providing the binary results.
For test results or other debug output, I think the system is not suited and we need a real CI system. Jenkins provides a much better interface for that kind of stuff I feel. But we can also use another CI system.
We should have one website that displays all relevant info without too many clicks, in a nicely readable format (looking at console output really should be a last resort). Jenkins has plugins that parse console output, XML output, HTML output from all these tools, which are then accessible without too many clicks.
I just found a plugin that is able to parse clang's static analysis output into a trend graph.
We should also integrate the rendersuite into this system, which I think will not be too much work.

Johan, this looks great... We could integrate it into the PPA build system, and install the resulting output into a new Debian package (e.g., inkscape-build-analysis). This will then automatically update the HTML output on each daily build.

Any thoughts?

Great work! Awesome to see this for Inkscape, static analysis is a must these days.

I feel the only way forward for our project is to use these tools.

I have never used Clang static analyzer, how good is it? a lot of false-positives?

I have not seen many false positives, but they are there. However, *all* false positives that I have seen in our codebase are the result of very very poor code design, and it takes a while to figure out that it is a false positive at all.
Clang's static analyzer is the best I have used and presents its reports in a nice HTML page that helps to find and fix the problem.
It's also easy to set up btw. (use scan-build)

Hi Johan,

Wow. This looks like it could be really useful in the days to come!

Thanks for taking the time to set this up,

Samuel
