Tapper is a test automation framework developed in the AMD OSRC and published in spring 2011. After a very brief introduction of the project I will introduce its coolest part from a programmers perspective - the scheduler that decides what test run on what machine. The scheduler faces the challenge to provide fairness in a world of far to many tasks (test requests) for far to little resources (test machines). The talk will give an insight on how this challenge is solved.

The scheduler uses DBIx::Class a lot. Thus, the talk will cover this topic a lot.
