Note that is only accurate to a certain point. There are other things which
we can do to guesswork our way out of the situation for Autoland, but of
course they're resource/time intensive (basically running orange tests over
and over again, etc.)
Is there any reason in principle that we couldn't have the test runner
automatically rerun tests with known intermittent failures a few
times, and let the test pass if it passes a few times in a row after
the first fail? This would be a much nicer option than disabling the
test entirely, and would still mean the test is mostly effective,
particularly if only specific failure messages are allowed to be
auto-retried.
I don't think there is a good reason not to do that. Please file a bug!
Cheers,
