[build-test] Should we setup a separate mail list for "alerts"?

Each of us can use filters to sort them, but it seems like it wouldn't 
be a bad idea having a separate list for this kind of thing.  comments?

I personally will have to create filters anyway. Though the filters
will be simpler :)

Thanks,
Mikhail

Some time ago when we discuss issue fixing policy some people vote to fix
failed tests/implementation ASAP instead of reverting changes back. But
nobody define the exact time for 'ASAP' :) If the issue requires 1 week for
investigation should we wait for fix? I think no.

And here we have 2 options: if the test is new - it should be excluded, if
the test is old - update should be reverted.

What does "under consideration" mean? We need to fix or roll them back ASAP
otherwise we will end with all the tests sitting in the exclude lists

Yep, harmonytest or melody.  If you forget what state we are in, or want
to look at the history then go to the dashboard and take a look.  But we
don't need a constant stream of builder spam.

Agreed.  I posted a "straw man" at the bottom of :

   http://wiki.apache.org/harmony/Automated_Testing

better :)

Filters are good to separate alerts from commits, but what's about
when we will be watching 10 applications on 6 platforms? I'd like to
be able to easily find the status
of each specific configuration

Meaning that you unsubbed mail and therefore have no clue about current 
state?  That is a corner case IMO (why are you unsubbing? :)

The solution is the "dashboard".  When we first started talking about 
this, an important piece is the as-yet-done "dashboard" - a single 
webpage somewhere where the status of every configuration under CI is 
shown (green/red or something).

The dashboard system ("harmonytest.org"?) would get a mail feed of the 
alerts - yet another good reason to have it's own list - and update on 
each mail it got.

Yes.  I do highly reccommend filters though...

What if I just returned from trip/vacation/something else

How can I know if some regular check is broken or not?

We probably need a wiki table with all possible regular runs and key words
for them, so that I can find mails in my box containing that key word.
Makes sense?

[build-test] CI behavior for email ( was Re: [build-test] Should we setup a separate mail list for "alerts"?)

That is somewhat orthogonal, because the CI system shouldn't care what 
we humans are doing - the "one notification" is automatic, based on "las 
state" and "current state".

My thought was that CI would send a "BUILD FAILED" email when the build 
broke on some platform/config, and wouldn't ever send another mail under 
the build-test cycle was successful, and then it would send "BUILD FIXED".

Only then could it ever send a "BUILD FAILED" again.

My problem is that CI is repeatedly sending email - it shouldn't until 
things a healthy.

For any given problem, we humans could choose to

a) exclude the test while someone works on it.  That would then result 
in a SVN change that would trigger the cycle again, and if successful 
send a "BUILD FIXED".

b) fix the code - resulting in the above cycle and "BUILD FIXED" email 
if successful

c) something else

but it doesn't matter - CI should just run based on 'last state', 
changes in SVN, succeess/failure of build/test run, and with that info 
and last state :

1)  send a "BUILD FIXED" - if last state was failed and the last 
build/test run was successful

2) send a "BUILD FAILED" - if last state was successful and build/test 
run failed

3) send nothing - if last state was failed and build/test run failed

3) send nothing - if last state was successful and build/test run was 
successful

Could we just exclude test while it is under investigation?
In this case we will see only one notification for each failure.
