1598231 - number of failures indicated in bugzilla doesn't match the number of failures indicated on Intermittent Failures View

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Tree Management :: Treeherder, defect)

Description

[Mike Hommey [:glandium]]

In bug 1597901, the line under the graph for orange factor says "4 failures on trunk in the past week", followed by a link. Opening the link shows the corresponding Intermittent Failures View, which only lists 3 failures.

The chart text is indeed off by a count of 1 compared to Intermittent Failures View, which wouldn't have changed recently. Cam, Joel, do you know who manages the orange factor chart on Bugzilla that Mike is referring to?

I believe the issue is specific to timing- when we measure 'last week' in the bugzilla addon vs IFV. Also is there cached data in bugzilla, I don't know.

I think :marco wrote this.

[Mike Hommey [:glandium]]

I don't think it's timing, because the bug I linked is new, and there were no oranges for it before the first that is listed.

IIRC :dkl wrote it.

Sorry folks, I don't have any info on that chart.

Comment 6

[Marco Castelluccio [:marco]]

Is this still a problem?

Comment 7

[Sebastian Hengst [:aryx] (needinfo me if it's about an intermittent or backout)]

What might have happened here and can still be observed, e.g. with bug (bug 1763179: 32 vs 31 failures): The intermittent failures view only shows failures for "trunk" repositories by default (= autoland + mozilla-central). Switching with the "Tree" menu at the top to "all" shows more. This has confused developers several times, lets change it to "all" by default.
