Description

Observation

https://openqa.suse.de/tests/7991880#next_previous shows a test failure retriggered 10 times in 12 days, but you really have to search for that. The job page already includes the information it was cloned, but not that that job already was cloned X times.
And I think it should, because for a test failure that looks randomly failing, it makes a huge difference if it was restarted 0, 1 or 10 times.

Acceptance criteria

  • AC1: An unusally high number of restarts is visible in the job

Suggestions

  • Just count the entries in the linked-list of clones and diplay in the job info box
  • Stop counting when more than 10 and say in the message "more than 10 times"
  • Optional: Flash popup when trying to clone a job that has already more than N (configurable in openQA config) clone origins

+1
On daily aggregate runs it's something easy to see, but on incidents it's more tricky and would be helpful to see the data to better decide how to tackle the failure.
