Pre-pushq checklist

From Genecats
Jump to navigationJump to search
  • look at a whole chromosome e.g. chr1, to check for pile ups.
  • makeDoc done?
  • track html description done?
  • if new mysql tables: added to makeDb/schema/all.joiner ?
  • maybe pass by outside data contributor
  • hdownload directory ? How does this work? Ask Jorge?
  • if the track requires new CGI code:
    • set the CGI target version of the redmine ticket, so QA will check the track against the new code when it goes out
  • If this is a track that has been on the RR before:
    • Does it have a release tag? If not: the new trackDb settings have to work with the old track, e.g. any bed/bigBed fieldCount will break it.
      • Remember that trackDb is pushed constantly, your trackDb changes can go live at any time.
    • If you changed the track's mysql columns, then the track name must be different (add a version number, e.g. omim2). We do not change mysql schemas.
    • Is it used by more than one assembly, check the other assemblies. An invalid grp or parent setting in the other assembly may disable the track.
