Description

Currently all failed jobs are red. After review we know how many failures are openQA issues (poo#) and how many are bugs (bsc#)

I propose to change colors of build results progress bar to reflect this information:

  • #ffcccc - failed job before review
  • #808080 - failed job because of openQA (they don't bring much value to managers)
  • #ff0000 - failed job because of bug

Just an idea, feel free to reject :)

Actually I think the progress bars already show too many different colors. We could simplify it to also show "skipped" in the same failed-red as they mean a test could not execute to the end because of a failure which might be even more severe in case of "skipped" then in failed.

The latter part about "don't bring much value to managers" sounds like a very risky approach if taken by a manager. If a test fails because of openQA, who knows what bugs lurk in the dark just after the failed test module that could not be executed?

I agree we already have too many colours - more colours won't make it any easier to digest.
