[p4] Perforce and Bugzilla integration?

[Robert Cowham]

Kendall

Check out what Ravenbrook is doing as regards Perforce bug tracking
integration - http://www.ravenbrook.com/project/p4dti/

The latest doc to be released says that the two tools being chosen for
initial kits are TeamTrack and Bugzilla!
(http://www.ravenbrook.com/project/p4dti/doc/2000-07-04/vendor-recommendatio
n/)

So it just depends on your timescales....

> Hi Guys,
>
> We are in the process of setting up both Perforce and Bugzilla (our
> bug tracking system is based on Bugzilla 2.10) on the same server
> (Linux Mandrake 7.1 on an Athlon 700, 256Meg, 15Gig disk). We already
> have Bugzilla up and running on this machine, and soon Perforce will
> be running.
>
> The next step is that I want to integrate both Bugzilla and Perforce
> together so that we can have Bugzilla automatically create new jobs
> in Perforce for every bug that is entered into Bugzilla, and to have
> Perforce automatically update Bugzilla when a job is closed (ie: it
> would then be closed in Bugzilla with the comment field from the
> change list/job description and passed off to QA).
>
> For those who are now familiar with Bugzilla, it is the Apache/MySQL
> based bug tracking system used by the Mozilla project. It started our
> being quite rudimentary, but now it is very powerful and we have
> found it to be incredibly useful for distributed bug tracking (our
> customers can get right in an submit bug reports directly!).
> Integration should be relatively easy, since Bugzilla is a collection
> of html/cgi/perl scripts that interface between Apache and the MySQL
> backend database.
>
> So the question is, has anyone else already done this? Does anyone
> have any scripts that would make this easier that have been used for
> other systems?
