Regressions (tests failing after a patch applicarion) should be automatically detected and marked as such ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: HADOOP-7043 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-7043 Project: Hadoop Common Issue Type: New Feature Affects Versions: 0.22.0 Reporter: Konstantin Boudnik The idea is pretty simple: whenever a test failure happens test-patch (or Hudson though the meaning of a plugin) needs to check appropriate project JIRAs to see if the test name is mentioned in one of the 'well-known' fields. Perhaps Description or Title are the best candidates for this role. The benefits are apparent: - saving time on analysis of intermittent failures (Hudson is only able to calculate failure age for a consequent failures i.e. where there's no "gaps" between failure episodes) - semi-intelligent check for possible regressions. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
