Updated by szarate about 1 year ago
Too often, we need to either trigger multiple jobs to know if an intermittent test failure is gone or to try and catch a sporadic product bug or an issue somewhere in the infrastructure, so the story would go like this: * As a developer, I would like the openQA client to trigger a list of jobs N times so I can catch a flaky testcase or reproduce a sporadic issue that doesn't affect other builds or JobGroups. I'm looking for an extension of the [openQA Client code](https://github.com/os-autoinst/openQA/blob/master/lib/OpenQA/CLI/archive.pm); code](https://github.com/os-autoinst/openQA/blob/master/lib/OpenQA/CLI/archive.pm) (of course team can propose other solutions), but knowing how to extend the openQA Client will allow us to do even more in the future to support other squads. squads #### Acceptance Criteria 1. Solution is documented in https://open.qa/docs/ in a Section dedicated to statistical investigation 1. Solution is packaged and distributed with openQA-client 1. Job count is added to the name of the test 1. Allow for a PR (CASEDIR) also to be triggered #### Notes 1. See https://progress.opensuse.org/projects/openqatests/wiki/Wiki#Statistical-investigation and [Oliver's](https://progress.opensuse.org/issues/122953#note-4) comment 1. TL;DR https://github.com/okurz/scripts/blob/master/openqa-clone-set or https://progress.opensuse.org/projects/openqatests/wiki/Wiki#Statistical-investigation already achieve but built-in into openqa-cli? `openqa-statistics-whatever $JOB $TIMES $JOB_SETTINGS` `openqa-clone-job ... --job-count 15 ...`
