I added a feature to IBM's Jenkins setup yesterday that other orgs doing Jenkins CI testing might find helpful to add as well.
We have the retest target for all of the Jenkins systems to re-test a particular PR: *bot:retest* I wanted an additional target that would trigger only the IBM Jenkins to re-test. This is helpful if we have a local issue with our Jenkins setup and don't want to force all of the Jenkins CI tests to fire at other organizations. So as of today you can specify the following to just get the IBM CI tests to re-test: *bot:ibm:retest* It might take a few minutes to kick off the build since we use a polling model (~2-5 minutes), but it will kick off only the IBM Jenkins CI tests. You can still use the "bot:retest" target to trigger all of the Jenkins services including IBM to re-test. I hope folks find this useful when working on PRs. -- Josh For those organizations interested in how to set this up here are the instructions - just adjusting the regular expression used in the build trigger: 1) Enter the 'configuration' in the Jenkins project you have setup to track GitHub PRs 2) Under "Build Triggers" -> "GitHub Pull Request Builder" - Click on "Advanced..." - Set "Trigger phrase" to .*bot:(ibm:)?retest.* Set the 'ibm' to your organization's short name, whatever you want it to be. Then let the list know.
