1122415 - Allow to go one step back

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Testing :: mozregression, enhancement)

Description

[Sebastian Zartner [:sebo]]

It may happen that you accidentally enter 'good', 'bad' or 'skip' for a specific build. In that case you need to restart mozregression with the last known regression range.

To make it easier to go back to the last bigger regression range there should be a new command 'back'.

Yup, I like the idea of this back command. :)

@Will
I implemented this by keeping a list of build data in the Bisector._bisect method, so going back is just reusing the last inserted one - simple and effective, allowing to go back can be done with an infinite level. (this is memory efficient because that's a shallow copy of a list)
