Even if the source code lines are physically deleted, the author can trivially resurrect them from Git history if and when they have time to figure out what the flakes were about and how to fix them. Something like https://wiki.jenkins.io/display/JENKINS/Flaky+Test+Handler+Plugin would be handy, though today it is not Pipeline-compatible, and IMO makes several untenable assumptions about project setup. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Jenkins Developers" group.
