I have updated the module to report a failure status whenever any ABI change is detected without specific conditions. For example, the image attached from my local server gave a failure status on the ABICompCheck step when comparing REL_17_1 with the head commit of REL_17_STABLE, as ABI changes were found.
Also, I think we can also have a configuration option for animal owners to toggle ABI change status on or off, thoughts?
