-----------------------------------------
Key: OVIRT-1779
URL:
https://ovirt-jira.atlassian.net/browse/OVIRT-1779
Project: oVirt - virtualization made easy
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: Gerrit/git
Reporter: Barak Korren
Assignee: infra
Labels: gerrit
The Gerrit [verify-status
plugin|https://gerrit.googlesource.com/plugins/verify-status/+doc/master/...]
allows separating CI output from normal review comments in Gerrit.
This plugin can be very useful for us as we want to increase the amount of tests a single
project runs in parallel as well as to allow different tests to deliver ouput out of sync
from one another.
The plugin source code can be found
[
here|https://gerrit.googlesource.com/plugins/verify-status/]. It seems there is also a
dedicated [Jenkins
plugin|https://github.com/jenkinsci/gerrit-verify-status-reporter-plugin] for interacting
with this plugin. We may not need or be able to use it since it seems to be hard-wired to
the 'Verify' flag.
It seems this plugin is used in [OpenStack
Gerrit|https://review.openstack.org/#/c/515413/]. They are still using to old UI there, so
it may be the case that the new UI does not support displaying output of this plugin.
There is a new [robot
comments|https://gerrit-review.googlesource.com/Documentation/config-robo...]
feature in gerrit (Not supported in the UI yet) that may end up providing similar
functionality to this plugin.
