Motivation¶

In #134933 and related tickets openQA gained new features to filter by group_glob including not_group_glob to filter out certain job groups. However it is either not possible or not clear how to filter out groupless jobs, e.g. see https://github.com/grisu48/openqa-mon/issues/135

Acceptance criteria¶

• AC1: A specific suggestion is provided on https://github.com/grisu48/openqa-mon/issues/135 how to filter out groupless jobs using the openQA API

Suggestions¶

• Extend the openQA API query functionality to filter out groupless jobs applicable for UI queries on /tests and /tests/overview as well
  • Maybe add not_groupid which would behave like not_group_glob except that it takes a group ID and 0 is interpreted as "no group".
  • Maybe tweak the existing groupid parameter to also interpret 0 as "no group" for the sake of consistency.
• Consider extending documentation in github.com/os-autoinst/openQA/tree/master/docs/
• Provide a specific on https://github.com/grisu48/openqa-mon/issues/135 how to filter out groupless jobs using the openQA API
