It doesn't makes sense to run if a user has removed all tests from a

Bumped into an issue caused by this commit with IGT tests.

When the last test of a run never finishes and you attempt to

     piglit resume -n test-results-path

this exception is raised instead of the expected result of finishing up
the run.

That is expected with the command line you've supplied.

The -n/--no-retry option instructs piglit to not retry tests that started but
didn't finish, if you get the same behavior without the -n option that is a bug.

What is the supported method then to loop resume until results.json.bz2
gets generated? Previous behaviour was that piglit reported that there's
nothing more to do and generated that.

I would use `piglit summary aggregate` to build the results.json.foo file.

Hi Dylan,

Petri is on vacation for some time, so let me provide a little more background on why this patch is problematic for our use-case.

For automated IGT testing, we have a testlist and reboot the machine as soon as we get a certain error condition or if the test takes more than a specified timeout, which reboots the machine immediately (watchdog).

Once the machine has rebooted, we re-deploy the right kernel and resume piglit testing, using the -n option. When the testing is over, piglit generates the results.json.foo file and returns 0. At this point, ezbench considers the execution as done and does its own things.

However, since this patch got introduced, if the last test got interrupted, then piglit will raise the PiglitUserError exception which is hard to interpret from outside as a way to say that all the tests have been run and that we should be generating the report. This also introduces an ill-tested codepath, so Petri and I were wondering why not make it less confusing for the user by just realizing that there are no tests left to run, and just generate the report at this point.

Any suggestion as to what we should be doing? Maybe we could only send this error when no tests have been run already and there are no runs to be run?

Thanks,
Martin
