Re: [cdt-dev] jenkins test environment

Hi Jesper,

I am not sure what is best plan to address getting cmake on build
machine, or if that is even necessary. So I will try to answer the
other part of your questions.

I have had trouble in the past with things like gcc versions. The
tests just use gcc on the path. Until the recent(ish) upgrade to the
HIPPs that meant we had a much older gcc than expected. The DSF-GDB
tests have a workaround because gcc doesn't support the flags [1].
For GDB it is necessary to test against numerous actual GDBs, so there
is a script to build them all[2]. These gdbs are then available in the
tests, with specific CI jobs that run against all of them[3]
Additionally there is a job that tests current master CDT against
current master GDB[4].
