(I have zero familiarity with the buildbot machinery.) If a test fails all the time and not randomly, a single email is sent at the first failure. I'm annoyed by test_threading which crash randomly on AIX: https://bugs.python.org/issue40068 It's a known issue, I already fixed 3/4 of the issue, but I didn't fix the remaining part. In the past, I already disabled AIX email notifications simply because there was nobody to fix issues, and so emails were just spam. > but I kinda *want* IBM developers running the Python test suite on AIX to see > those failures, in the hope that they might then be motivated to push for a > fix to the relevant AIX bug. :-) Well, that would be great. I'm not sure if Michael Felt is still working on supporting AIX in Python. David Edelsohn might help. ---------- nosy: +David.Edelsohn _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue42323> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
