Observation¶

See documentation for force_soft_failure:

Similar to record_soft_failure but can be used to override the test module status to softfail from a post_fail_hook if the module would be set to fail otherwise. This can be used for easier tracking of known issues without needing to handle failed tests a lot.

However as can be seen in reproducer this does not work.

Expected result¶

The result of the module and job in reproducer is softfailed and not failed.

Acceptance Criteria¶

• AC1: force_soft_failure overrides the job result when called from a post_fail_hook

Further details¶

• force_soft_failure is only used in osado to turn passing modules into soft-failing ones so maybe this limitation has never been spotted.
