Non-PR Testing

Various test runs (e.g. the weekly test run, or master test runs after a merge) are not directly associated with user activity and therefore and no clear responsible party when something goes wrong. With no

clear owner problems that occur on these test runs that do not occur elsewhere (e.g. on a PR run with a clear owner) can go undetected and uninvestigated for too long. To combat this problem a member

of the test team is assigned as owner on a rotating basis. Responsibilities are as follows:

Review test run output on a daily basis, any failed runs require follow up.
Investigate test failures. If a test failure has an existing ticket make sure it is properly identified as an "Intermittent Test Issue". If there is not an existing ticket, create one. Use the template below when creating the ticket.
Review CI test issue tickets using the pre-defined Jira query "Intermittent Test Issues".
- Bring failures that do not receive prompt action to the attention of management and/or the daos triage team.
- Tickets that have been open for 30 days or more and have "Number of Occurrences" set to 1 are candidates for closure. Follow up with assignee and/or triage group team to reevaluate.
- Present a short, reoccurring segment at the Monday test meeting on CI triage status.

Non-PR Testing Rotating Owners
