top posting: How about the following flow: 1. You push a patch to gerrit. 2. You need +1 on Testing in order to merge it. 3. You have +1/-1 on the Tests if finished successfully/failed 4. You find out you need to rebase. 5. The rebase copies the result of the Tests of the previous patch-set... if it was +1, it remains +1 and you can merge (assuming you have +2 on CR). If it was -1 then you need to wait for the CI to finish, and it might set it to +1.
Does that make sense?
Yes, but only if you used rebase button and automatic rebase worked. In case of merge conflict you will need to wait after rebase for tests.
Well, that's more or less what's happening today, we did set up the flag propagation on trivial rebase time ago. I'll have to check how to make jenkins ignore those trivial rebases only if they have a +1.
So are you sure that having no merge conflict means that the rebase patch works as before? (I imagine for example that you could have two features that together might not work well, even if they do not touch the same code)
You minimize the probability that something will get wrong. It isn't 100%. Using Zuul is the right way to go, but until you have that I think what I proposed will make it both easy to use and maintain, and both safe up to 95% or so.

What happens when rebasing? We can't afford waiting for tests to run on each rebase... as we might end up rebasing forever.
For now we will have to, all the code that is going to be merged must be tested as it is going to be merged, that means running the tests in the last rebase too.
In the future there are plans on using a gating system like zuul, so zuul will be the one monitoring the tests and merging when passes, so you will just add the flag, and that will trigger the gate, that runs the tests and merged the patch.
It's unlikely that you'll have to wait forever, but there's nothing avoiding you doing that (right now even).
I'd like to put emphasis again on differentiating between tests that are fast, that should run on each patch and tests that are slow, that should run on each merge. That will improve the feedback times.
So let's apply that in the future. For now the amount of merges done is enormous, and it will be impossible to get things merged on a reasonable time. Again, I'm not against testing, but it should be done the right way...
