             Summary: OST runs engine 4.2 by default, misleading developers
                 Key: OVIRT-2664
                 URL: https://ovirt-jira.atlassian.net/browse/OVIRT-2664
             Project: oVirt - virtualization made easy
          Issue Type: By-EMAIL
            Reporter: Nir Soffer
            Assignee: infra


When creating OST manual job, the UI select engine version 4.2 by default:
https://jenkins.ovirt.org/job/ovirt-system-tests_manual/build?delay=0sec

A developer that want to test engine master must change the version
manually.

I you forget to change the version, or just do not notice that there is
engine
version to choose, your job may succeed when it actually fail with engine
master.

Watching other developers start OST jobs, they do not notice that engine
version must be selected, and treat it as the other options that most people
do not care about.

This is probably the reason why OST was broken for a week, and nobody
complained about it, since default build used engine 4.2.

How to fix:

- The UI must be changed to require engine version selection. You cannot
  have default for this.

The UI should show something like:

    ENGINE_VERSION: [select version]  *required

- The "Build" button must be disabled if no version was selected.
