This comes from a thread on the qa mailing list http://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/qa/2014-May/001412.html Rob Lanphier found out a Jenkins plugin that seems to fulfill the need (Claim Build plugin): http://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/qa/2014-May/001420.html https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Claim+plugin
Change 131940 had a related patch set uploaded by Hashar: Allow user to claim failed build https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/131940
Change 131940 merged by jenkins-bot: Allow user to claim failed build https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/131940
Jobs updated. Pending verification and we might want to document the feature somewhere.
Thanks guys for such the quick response. I currently can't work out how to claim older failed jobs so I can't test it - is this possible? What is the workflow? I went to https://wmf.ci.cloudbees.com/job/MobileFrontend-en.m.wikipedia.beta.wmflabs.org-linux-firefox/541/ but I don't see a claim link there. If I visit https://integration.wikimedia.org/ci/claims/? I see two things that can be claimed - will future failed jobs show up here?
The Claim plugin is only allowed on the Wikimedia instances and only on the browser tests jobs listed at https://integration.wikimedia.org/ci/view/BrowserTests/ I haven't noticed the link https://integration.wikimedia.org/ci/claims/ , that it is a nice finding :-) I lost my access to Cloudbees and we will get all jobs migrated whenever Zeljkof comes back. So I am not sure whether it is worth the effort to install Claim there (if at all possible). Once you got some experience with claiming builds, would you like to advertise it to the whole engineering and dev community? It might have usages beyond browsertests.
Okay.. I see how this works but until we move MobileFrontend away from Cloudbees and generate emails from integration.wikimedia.org it's near impossible for me to provide useful feedback on how this works. I'll wait patiently :) Thanks for the work so far!
The browser tests have been migrated out of Cloudbees to Wikimedia Jenkins. They should all have the claim plugin enabled now.
