1703345 - Make the mozperftests use consistent --verbose options

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Testing :: mozperftest, enhancement, P2)

Description

[Andrew Creskey [:acreskey]]

Most of the android perftests do not use the --verbose option, which makes debugging failures difficult.

This bug is to consistently add the --verbose option so that we can easily see all the logs (e.g. geckodriver)

Patch incoming.

Comment 2

[Greg Mierzwinski [:sparky]]

I don't think we should be making this a default behaviour, that's a ton of logging that we won't need most of the time. Could we either add this temporarily while you're debugging the issue (and remove it afterwards) or can we add a taskcluster action to run a task with the --verbose flag like we do for gecko-profiling?

Comment 3

[Andrew Creskey [:acreskey]]

Ah, I didn't realize that there was a meaningful cost to the logging.

It turns out it wasn't needed for this feature because it was enabled on other tests.

Maybe I should make this bug do the opposite: remove the --verbose where it is in use?
(And we can push it enabled when we need to debug).
I wouldn't know where to start on the taskcluster action.

This removes the --verbose option from a handful of perftests that had it enabled.
