For every failure on TBPL, at least one (and often several) BZAPI call(s)
is/are performed in order to generate the list of suggested bugs. However at
present, we file intermittent failures with [orange] in the whiteboard, which
is much less performant when searching, compared to using a keyword.
As a result, I am switching to using a keyword ('intermittent-failure') in bug
790571. TBPL, OrangeFactor & the new bugzilla.mozilla.org OrangeFactor
extension will be updated to support the change.
** If you know of anything else that will need patching, please let me know in
bug 790571. **
A script will be used to add the keyword to existing bugs without generating
thousands of bugmails. Once everything is working correctly using the keyword,
another script will remove the now obsolete whiteboard annotation without
bugspam.
I will be posting to dev.platform after the change to remind people to update
saved searches and use the new keyword when filing oranges. I will also set up
a personal whine, so I can catch any stray bugs over the following months.
Best wishes,
Ed
