From victor.stinner at gmail.com Tue May 9 11:01:27 2017 From: victor.stinner at gmail.com (Victor Stinner) Date: Tue, 9 May 2017 17:01:27 +0200 Subject: [Python-buildbots] Email notifications on buildbot failures Message-ID: Hi, I would like to get an email notification each time the state of a buildbot changed from green (success) to red (failed). Maybe we can start with the master branch, but my long term plan is to watch all branches (especially 2.7, 3.5, 3.6 and master), but maybe exclude the special custom buildbots. Can I use this list, or do you prefer that I create a different list? If you prefer a different list, which name do you suggest? I'm already watching "daily" (almost) buildbot waterfalls, but the UI is not efficient, I have to scroll, ignore known broken buildbots, ignore offline builders, etc. My request is to only get a notification for the green => red state change, not any state change for now, that would avoid spaming the list. I always would like to use a mailing list to coordonate efforts to fix buildbot issues. Victor From greg at krypto.org Tue May 9 11:43:29 2017 From: greg at krypto.org (Gregory P.

Maybe a new list "buildbot-status at python.org"? I'd agree with this, or with using python-checkins at . Dusty, commented code in the master config looks like notifications used to go there, but it was before my time and I don't know why it was stopped (if indeed it ever happened). -- Zach From victor.stinner at gmail.com Tue May 9 18:09:23 2017 From: victor.stinner at gmail.com (Victor Stinner) Date: Wed, 10 May 2017 00:09:23 +0200 Subject: [Python-buildbots] Email notifications on buildbot failures In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: 2017-05-09 18:11 GMT+02:00 Zachary Ware : >> Agreed.

I'm not interested by python-checkins@, so at least me would like to get two separated lists :-) It's not too difficult to subscribe to two different lists ;-) Victor From ncoghlan at gmail.com Tue May 9 22:03:50 2017 From: ncoghlan at gmail.com (Nick Coghlan) Date: Wed, 10 May 2017 12:03:50 +1000 Subject: [Python-buildbots] Email notifications on buildbot failures In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: On 10 May 2017 at 02:11, Zachary Ware wrote: > On Tue, May 9, 2017 at 11:04 AM, Chris Angelico wrote: >> On Wed, May 10, 2017 at 1:43 AM, Gregory P.

My vague recollection is that it was originally turned on, but then switched off for generating too many false alarms (i.e. problems with the buildbots rather than problems with the test results). Separating out a "stable" subset of buildbots that were expected to stay green came later. Cheers, Nick. -- Nick Coghlan | ncoghlan at gmail.com | Brisbane, Australia
