Konstantin Boudnik commented on HADOOP-7043:
--------------------------------------------
At the beginning this functionality might as simple as producing a JIRA number
in a report so a human can take a look if it is relevant or not. More
complicated logic might include considerations about JIRA's states. E.g. if
JIRA is in 'Fixed' state then test failure is likely to be a regression; if it
open then the failure is simply a know issue, and so on.
> 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.
