            Bug ID: 218026
           Summary: Rename BuildSlaveSupport to BuildAutomation
           Product: WebKit
           Version: Other
          Hardware: Unspecified
                OS: Unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Tools / Tests
          Assignee: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
          Reporter: aakash_jain at apple.com

We should rename BuildSlaveSupport to BuildAutomation. This is for following purposes:

1) using more inclusive name and avoiding the 'slave' terminology

2) we are planning to upgrade build.webkit.org to latest Buildbot soon which uses "worker" terminology instead of "buildslave", it would be nice to have uniformity in directory naming as well

3) making the naming/directory-structure more consistent with some of our other projects


Note that some of the scripts inside this folder might be used in various places, including other repositories and other buildbot instances, we would need to make sure that we update those places as well. Also the servers like build.webkit.org, ews-build.webkit.org and ews.webkit.org would need to be updated accordingly as they are running the production services from inside this directory.
