I would argue that the more tedious problem is having tests that sometimes fail. I've been waging a war against intermittent test failures in JBoss Tools for years. Some have been fixed by rewriting, some removed, and some fixed by upgrading the infrastructure (eg., giving slave nodes more RAM or more disk).
Another way to manage this problem is to install the Naginator plugin to your JIPP: "Naginator is a plugin that schedules a new build immediately following a build failure, thereby nagging the project members that the build is failing." Can be configured to define number of rebuilds, frequency of rebuilds, etc. On Mon, Mar 12, 2018 at 9:25 AM, Mikaël Barbero < [email protected]> wrote: > Hi, > > For those of you who use a JIPP to build Gerrit patch sets, you may have > noticed that the user "Hudson CI" has been renamed to "CI Bot".
