943520 - mozregression produced a bad changeset URL

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Testing :: mozregression, defect)

Description

Attachment: log

I range mozregression but I didn't get a good URL (see log):
http://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central//pushloghtml?fromchange=1bf867ff4215&tochange=78cd3e278127

Ideally we should improve this message to something with as much information we can easily gather and format it such that it can be posted directly in a bug. See https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=787892#c1 for a perfect example.

What command line did you provide to mozregression to get this result?

Comment 2

[William Lachance (:wlach)]

Nevermind, just realized that info was in the log.

The problem here seems to be that you're using inbound builds to narrow down the range, but still spitting out a mozilla-central-based URL for the regression range. If you swap m-i for m-c in that URL you get a nice result:
http://hg.mozilla.org/integration/mozilla-inbound/pushloghtml?fromchange=1bf867ff4215&tochange=78cd3e278127

There were two problems:

1. What Ted mentioned
2. We were using commit timestamps to get the inbound range, rather than an actual pushlog.

With these issues fixed, we're now actually getting useful results.
