Future

Support external module development

Simplify testing

• GUI Testing
• Establish system (with man-in-the-middle) for developers to send modules to factory machines
  • Use my.cdash.org for projects to be grouped with Slicer
  • Developer initiates continuous builds of git branches and gets branch-specific dashboards

Verify modules prior to moving into Slicer

• Fetch modules from NITRC for nightly building
• Round-robin or build-when-changes schemes for CDash

Support distribution of modules

• Fetch build results (execs and dlls) from blessed dashboard machines
  • Package for Linux?

Batch Processing (optional)

• BatchMake with Slicer via WebKit
• Simplify Condor installation
• MIDAS hosts testing results (covalic)
• Scripting Slicer GUI (record and playback -> Batch processing)
• Kill/monitor threads spawned by processes / CLI
