Minesweeper CI
Minesweeper is continuous integration for Openstack running on VMware environments. In a nutshell, Minesweeper listens to newly created patchsets on review.openstack.org and runs the Tempest test suite on the patch. Currently Minesweeper is listening to Nova and Neutron projects.
Current Status
Please see here for current status and a history of service disruptions.
Excluded Tests
A small handful of Tempest tests are excluded from run because there are known issues or a specific feature may not be implemented. Information about these tests can be found here.
What to do when a build fails
Minesweeper votes a +1 for your patch when it passes. In the case of a failure, a +0 will be posted with a message that the build failed. When this happens, the best way to proceed is to follow these steps:
1. The build failure comment will be accompanied by a link to the build logs. Click to follow the link.
2. Open testr_results.html.gz and note the tests that failed. If the file is not present, then open console.txt and scroll to the bottom. If the message "Build was unsuccessful due to Infra-related issues" appears, go directly to step 4 (and optionally check the status page to see if Minesweeper is operational). Otherwise continue to step 3.
3. Navigate back to the logs directory and try to identify the cause of the failures using the screen logs. The best way to do this is go through the relevant logs and look for strings such as ERROR, CRITICAL, or Traceback.
4. If you are confident that your patch did not contribute to the error, then the last step is to issue a recheck. A recheck will essentially run your patch through the CI again in case the failure was caused by a transient bug, race condition, or cosmic rays. To issue a recheck, submit a comment with the following text: recheck-vmware
