Currently we only run Saucelabs on PRs using the legacy View Engine
build. Switching that build to Ivy is not trivial and there are various
options:
1. Updating the R3 switches to use POST_R3 by default. At first glance,
this doesn't look easy because the current ngtsc switch logic seems to
be unidirectional (only PRE_R3 to POST_R3).
2. Updating the legacy setup to run with Ivy. This sounds like the easiest
solution at first.. but it turns out to be way more complicated. Packages
would need to be built with ngtsc using legacy tools (i.e. first building
the compiler-cli; and then building packages) and View Engine only tests
would need to be determined and filtered out. Basically it will result in
re-auditing all test targets. This is contradictory to the fact that we have
this information in Bazel already.
3. Creating a new job that runs tests on Saucelabs with Bazel. We specify
fine-grained test targets that should run. This would be a good start
(e.g. acceptance tests) and also would mean that we do not continue maintaining
the legacy setup..
This commit implements the third option as it allows us to move forward
with the general Bazel migration. We don't want to spend too much time
on our legacy setup since it will be removed anyway in the future.

We keep a version of yarn in the repo, at
`third_party/github.com/yarnpkg/`. All CI jobs should use that version
for consistency (and easier updates).
Previously, the Windows jobs did not use the local version. They used
the version that came pre-installed on the docker image that we used.
This made it more difficult to update the yarn version (something that
we might want to do independently of updating other dependencies, such
as Node.js).
This commit fixes this by setting up the Windows CI jobs to also use the

We keep a version of yarn in the repo, at

should use that version for consistency (and easier updates). The path
to the actual `yarn.js` script, however, changes depending on the
version (e.g. `third_party/github.com/yarnpkg/v1.21.1/...`).
(NOTE: The Windows jobs are currently not using this local version, but
that should be fixed in a subsequent commit.)
Previously, when updating the local version of yarn, we would
potentially have to update the path in several places.
This commit addresses the problem by adding a Node.js script that infers
the correct path. The script can be used in all places where we need to
use the local version of yarn (including both Linux and Windows CI

In efbbae5a4, the `publish_packages_as_artifacts` CircleCI job was
created to publish the build artifacts of PR builds on CI. In a8f4f14bd,
its scope was expanded to also publish build artifacts on non-PR builds.
The published artifacts names are constructed based on the PR number
(e.g. include `-pr12345-`), so on non-PR builds the names do not reflect
the source branch (instead, they include `-prfalse-`).
This commit fixes this by using the current branch name. For example,
artifact names for the `master` or `9.0.x` branch will include
`-master-` and `-9.0.x-` respectively (instead of `-prfalse-`).

Related to this change, we need to ignore the `package.json`

since we don't want to change the dev setup (as it slows down

the components repo setup relies on NGCC being run. This is also

Previously, the docker images used on CI where specified by a tag
(`10.16` and `10.16-browsers`). Since tags are not immutable, this only
pins specific characteristics of the environment (e.g. the OS type and
the Node.js version), but not others. Especially when using a tag that
does not specify the patch version (e.g. `10.16` instead of `10.16.0`),
it is inevitable that the image will change at some point, potentially
leading to unrelated failures due to changes in the environment.
One source of such failures can be the Chrome version used in tests.
Since we install a specific ChromeDriver version (that is only
compatible with specific Chrome version ranges), unexpectedly updating
to a newer Chrome version may break the tests if the new version falls
outside the range of supported version for our pinned ChromeDriver.
Using a tag that specifies the patch version (e.g. `10.16.0`) or even
the OS version (e.g. `10.16.0-buster`) is safer (i.e. has a lower
probability of introducing the kind of breakages described above), but
is still not fully hermetic.
This commit prevents such breakages by pinning the docker images by ID.
Image IDs are based on the image's digest (SHA256) and are thus
immutable, ensuring that all CI jobs will be running on the exact same
image.

The commit range that is associated with a CI build is used for a couple

- Determine whether a size change was caused by application code or
dependencies (or both).
- Add the messages of the commits associated with the build (and thus
the payload-size change).
NOTE: The commit range is only used on push builds.

The `setup-local` npm script uses `NgPackagesInstaller` to replace the
Angular packages with the locally built ones. Previously, it would (a)
assume that the packages were built and (b) it would do anything if the
currently installed versions already correspond to locally built
packages (even if not the latest version).
This could lead to all sorts of errors, such as:
- Confusing error messages, `dist/packages-dist/` was missing.
- Using outdated build artifacts from `dist/packages-dist/` without a

- Not installing the latest locally built packages, because the ones
installed already corresponded to locally built (but older) ones.

- The local packages are always built before being used by
`NgPackagesInstaller`.
- The local packages are installed, even if the ones install already
correspond to local packages.

only run Saucelabs in a cronjob on the upstream branches. This still
ensures/guarantees our browser compatibility, but makes our CI
more stable and the PR workflow more productive.

Since all unit tests are now run with Bazel, we can remove
the local legacy unit tests job. We still need to keep the
Saucelabs legacy job until we can run all of these web
unit tests with Saucelabs and Bazel.

As discussed in https://github.com/angular/angular/pull/28546#discussion_r254068014, we want to combine the
`define_env_vars` and `download_yarn` anchor since downloading Yarn depends on setting up the
environment variables. In addition this simplifies our setup and reduces code-duplication.
PR Close#28788
Previously, in order for the `aio_monitoring` failure notifications to
work, the steps up to `define_env_vars` should have succeeded. This
meant that any failures in earlier steps would not send notifications.
This commit fixes it by making the notification step independent of the
`define_env_vars` step.

In most cases, it doesn't make a difference, because the cache does
already exist and is not saved. In the few cases where the dependencies
change (and the cache needs to be updated), it makes more sense to save
the cache in the `build-npm-packages` job, because most jobs depend on
it and thus will be able to take advantage of the updated cache right
away.
This seems to be an oversight in b26ac1c22.

Currently our version of Yarn is installed through
the "circleci/node" docker image. This is problematic
because in order to be able to update Yarn, we always
need to update the docker image to a version that
comes with the desired Yarn version. Sometimes there
is no docker image with the desired latest Yarn version,
and therefore we cannot easily update the Yarn version.
Additionally updating the docker image also means that
we need to update our version of NodeJS, as well as the
version of `openssl` might have changed (meaning that
our encrypted credential files may not be decodable with
the new version of `openssl`)

Occasionally, yarn's requests take more than 10 minutes to
complete/fail, by which time CircleCI jobs due to no output.
This commit works around the issue by periodically printing something to
stdout.
PR Close#28458
Previously all Bazel repositories were cached on CircleCI
because the `experimental_repository_cache` flag has been
specified and the given repository cache directory has been
included in the CircleCI cache storage.
The directory is currently still included in the CircleCI
cache storage, but the `--repository_cache` flag is no longer
specified, and the cache directory is basically empty all the
time. The flag seems to have been removed accidentally within
SHA c8b70ae8e4.
We should specifiy this flag on the CI again, so that Bazel
doesn't need to install the Bazel managed node modules
all the time. This would slow down analysis phase on CI; and also
makes us dependent on the Yarn/NPM registry which often times out
if we fetch a lot of dependencies.
Also in order to make sure that cached Bazel repositories are
also most of the time in sync with what's currently defined in
the workspace, we need to update the cache key.
PR Close#28515
Currently whenever someone creates a pull request, the NPM dependencies
are downloaded and installed. This is problematic because we have a lot
NPM dependencies with potentially large files that would need to be
downloaded (e.g. the Bazel binaries).
The caches are currently not being restored because we added the
`{Branch}` variable to the CircleCI cache key. Since every PR has a different
branch name (e.g. `devversion/refs/heads/my-banch`), the cache keys would
never match an existing cache key, and the PR would start fresh by
downloading everything.
We can safely remove the `{Branch}` variable from the cache key because
it does not provide any value since the cached files are based on the state
of the `yarn.lock` file and not based on the current branch name. This reduces
our dependency on the slow and sometimes **flaky** Yarn registry. We should
try to depend as few as possible on external services (e.g. see how Saucelabs
flakiness can cause trouble for the caretaker; same applies to flaky Yarn installs)

By default, `webdriver-manager update` will download the latest
ChromeDriver version, which might not be compatible with the Chrome
version included in the [docker image used on CI], causing CI failures.
Previously, we used to pin the ChromeDriver version on CI in
[ngcontainer's Dockerfile][2]. This was accidentally broken in #26691,
while moving from ngcontainer to default CircleCI docker images.
This commit fixes the issue by pinning ChromeDriver to a known
compatible version.

* No longer builds the example e2e tests using "tsc". The examples are now built with Bazel and can therefore be built with Ivy by using the `--define=compile=aot` switch.
* No longer runs the example e2e tests using the protractor CLI. example e2e tests are executed with the Bazel protractor rule and can therefore run incrementally.
NOTE: Unit tests found within the examples are still running within the legacy jobs.

On push builds, CircleCI provides `CIRCLE_COMPARE_URL`, which we use to
extract the commit range for a given build. When a workflow is rerun
(e.g. to recover from a flaked job), `CIRCLE_COMPARE_URL` is not
defined, causing some jobs to fail.
This commit fixes it by retrieving the compare URL from the original
workflow. It uses a slow process involving a (potentially large) number
of requests to CircleCI API.
It depends on the (undocumented) fact, that the `workspace_id` is the
same on all rerun workflows and the same as the original `workflow_id`.

* Groups the two sharded `test_docs_examples` job using CircleCI's `parallelism` feature. This makes the amount of jobs that show up on a PR, more reduced and also reduces code duplication for maintaining the Circle job definition.
