I did have a play, but didn't get anything satisfactory working. I could only capture a trace from a single thread and the hard problems that really want traces usually involve multiple threads. There's really no good substitute for an OS level crash collector like systemd-coredump or abrtd :-( This is really worth an RFE to GitLab as a possible enhancement to their shared runners. > > You should be able to at least get the number of the subtest out of > > the logs (either directly in the logs of the job, or else > > from the more detailed log file that gets stored as a > > job artefact in most cases). > > Also note that the test is stopping in an abort, with no diagnostic > message that I can see. But I don't see where the abort cames from: Any g_assert failure will result in an abort, so there are many possibilities. We should be uploading the testlog.txt from meson test to show what one asserts, but I've just discovered we're lacking 'when: always' on our 'artifacts' declarations. So the artifacts are only uploaded when the job succeeds, which the least useful scenario for our test logs !
