Explanation
A regression test is an A/B test of target performance in a repeatable rig, where "performance" is measured as "comparison variant minus baseline variant" for an optimization goal (e.g., ingress throughput). Due to intrinsic variability in measuring that goal, we can only estimate its mean value for each experiment; we report uncertainty in that value as a 90.00% confidence interval denoted "Δ mean % CI".
For each experiment, we decide whether a change in performance is a "regression" -- a change worth investigating further -- if all of the following criteria are true:
-
Its estimated |Δ mean %| ≥ 5.00%, indicating the change is big enough to merit a closer look.
-
Its 90.00% confidence interval "Δ mean % CI" does not contain zero, indicating that if our statistical model is accurate, there is at least a 90.00% chance there is a difference in performance between baseline and comparison variants.
-
Its configuration does not mark it "erratic".

Technically we could compute known_flaky_tests_parents
from known_flaky_tests
. I did not do it to avoid computing it on very test name. We can compute it once for each package. We could say that we do not care about the performance here and compute the known_flaky_tests_parents
every time the method is called, to make this function call way simpler

I find it cleaner to have the ancestors as an input to this function, building it per package seems fine

💬 suggestion

def get_tests_family(self, test_name_list): |
I prefer the family
because it includes the test itself, compared to parents
that might mean the returned value do no include the test itself

Yes I agree, I found that family
was not that explicit. But parents
is not ideal neither.

What does this PR do?
Change test washer logic to mark as flake all parents of a flake test
Motivation
In this job it fails whereas the test is correctly marked as flake. As go test set parent tests as failed when a child fails we probably want to mark the parent as flake in the washer
