Hello all,

One of the major irritations with our current v2.2.0 buildbot deployments is that the status information about failed steps is wrong.

E.g. the status email for a failed build today read:

   BUILD FAILED: failed 'python -u ...'

It should have read:

   BUILD FAILED: failed 'content_browsertests'

"content_browsertests" is the name provided when creating the Step object in question.

Most of our steps not just run Python scripts, but python scripts that then run the specified command, so the name of the step is not specified until far out in the

The only step I have seen get correctly named, is the "update" step, which is a steps.Git object.

I have been looking around the codebase to discover how to fix it, and even made a few changes to our ShellCommand subclass, without any luck.

Any suggestion for how to fix this issue?


For reference, I've previously mentioned this issue in <https://github.com/buildbot/buildbot/issues/4516>, as one of the many problems we have with the Web UI.
