[Libreoffice-qa] QA work with Windows Tinderbox builds -- need help

Hello,
 
By way of introduction to the QA List I need some advice on working with the TinderBox builds for Windows.
 
I am currently looking at the problems with Java Accessibility - Java Access Bridge -- UNO accessibility mappings for the 3.6.x Windows builds  ( https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=53474 )  David Tardon committed a patch that needs to be tested:
 
https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/gitweb?p=core.git;a=commit;h=d475a059fc9f07f4d896bd67649c7d800fc66f6f 
 
I would like to do so, and I can follow the code base and commenting with Opengrok and gerrit for the most part, but I'm stumped about the TinderBox builds.  Assume the patch would be against a Master build, unless noted that it is being pushed down the 3.6 tree--but it looks like the MSVC Windows builds of Master are not running, and that the MinGW builds are "suspect".

Also, it looks like the builds of Master have only been bundling the directory tree as a gzipped tar--no packaging into an MSI.  Is there some setup help with steps to overlay an existing LibO installation/profile with an LOdev build to end up with a useable test install?
 
Thanks!
 
Stuart
