#2494: It is not always clear what parameters each buildstep can have which can
result in unexpected behavior
------------------------+---------------------------------------
Reporter: johnt | Owner:
Type: enhancement | Status: new
Priority: minor | Milestone: undecided
Version: 0.8.7p1 | Keywords: docs steps parameters api
------------------------+---------------------------------------
In cases where build steps fail or have warnings it is not always
immediately clear what will happen to the build - will it stop or continue
and what will it be marked as?
To this end it might be a good idea to provide this information in a table
in the documentation. It could contain a list of the possible build steps
which have parameters set by default and possibly a link to the API
reference. Example:
Buildstep | Default Parameters | API ref
Configure | haltOnFailures=True, flunkOnFailures=True | Link
Compile | haltOnFailures=True, flunkOnFailures=True | Link
ShellCommand | flunkOnFailures=True | Link
...
This would make it clear to users why their builder is behaving as it is.
