1842195 - Set status flag when filing regression bugs

Status: NEW

(Tree Management :: Perfherder, enhancement, P3)

Description

[Marco Castelluccio [:marco]]

This would be useful so the bugs opened for perf regressions get on release managers radars during weekly regression triage.

E.g. https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1836467 has the regression keyword, but Nightly is not marked as affected.

This should be performed manually by the sheriff, as documented in https://wiki.mozilla.org/TestEngineering/Performance/Sheriffing/Workflow#Filing_a_regression_bug:

3. In bugzilla scroll down and click on Set bug flags and set to affected the last status-firefox version that appears in the list.

Perhaps it was missed in this case. We should keep this open for automating this process using the bugzilla API.

Note that the BugBot script will set the status flags if the Regressed by field has the regressing bug set. See bug 1909338 comment 1 for an example.

BugBot should also set just Nightly affected if the there is no regressing bug. See https://wiki.mozilla.org/BugBot#regression_new_set_nightly_affected.py
