Todo: pass/fail criteria for lava jobs (&results) in jenkins and how to +/-1 to gerrit.

This will need a little planning ...

Goal: we need to be able to report back success, fail to gerrit via +1/-1 on the CIBT label.

Conditions:

• we need to be able to detect failures, but also allow known issues to be skipped so we do not fail the CI when we know something is not working.

• Jenkins itself has no notion of 'skip'. We can only pass/fail a whole job (thus +1/-1) for the job itself. Thus even if we have an error in the tests, we might still pass the jenkins job (but maybe send a different label back).

• Lava test results need to be interpreted (as far it can be done in automation)

• We need a way to define how to skip an error or how to eval a particular pkg

  • for apps this could be a .aglci file in the git repo maybe

  • for non-apps we need to think where to place it (or how to retrieve it)

We can talk through this if you like
