Re: Improving tracking/processing of buildfarm test failures - Mailing list pgsql-hackers

Hello hackers,

Please take a look at the April report on buildfarm failures:

# SELECT br, count(*) FROM failures WHERE dt >= '2025-04-01' AND
  dt < '2025-05-01' GROUP BY br;
REL_13_STABLE: 1
REL_14_STABLE: 2
REL_15_STABLE: 5
REL_16_STABLE: 7
REL_17_STABLE: 8
master: 261
-- Total: 284
(Counting test failures only, excluding indent-check, Configure, Build
errors.)

# SELECT COUNT(*) FROM (SELECT DISTINCT issue_link FROM failures WHERE
  dt >= '2025-04-01' AND dt < '2025-05-01');
33

  # SELECT issue_link, count(*) FROM failures WHERE dt >= '2025-04-01' AND
  dt < '2025-05-01' GROUP BY issue_link ORDER BY 2 DESC LIMIT 5;
