             Summary: Create a package gating flow with OST
                 Key: OVIRT-1077
                 URL: https://ovirt-jira.atlassian.net/browse/OVIRT-1077
             Project: oVirt - virtualization made easy
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Barak Korren
            Assignee: infra
            Priority: Highest


The OST flows today run on package repos that are composed wither from all 
available updates (As in the case of the 'experimental' flows) or on manually 
curated repos (As in the case of the 'older' OST flows or the manual flows).

The existing flows lack feedback. When OST fails it can be hard to know which 
of the group of changes that happened before it ran was the one to cause to to 
fail. This places a severe workload on the infra team to diagnose and report 
OST failures.

This ticket suggest the creation of a new flow where all changes to all OST 
input sources are tracked, so that when OST fails it is possible to run a 
bisection algorithm and automatically report to the developers about the change 
that caused the failure.

This approach can more cheaply provide most of the benefits of pre-merge gating 
while side-stepping some of the technical complications.
