[major_refactor] Preserve test --retry meaning #139

Closed atoomic closed 4 years ago

atoomic commented 4 years ago

We should not need to set '--retry=2' to retry a test. The previous implementation would be more accurate if we rename '--retry' '--run-up-to-x-times'.

As documented: "retry=1 means failing tests will be attempted twice"

--retry and --retry=1 should be similar and should request for a job to be run one more time on failure.

--retry=0 is similar to --no-retry --retry=1 try an extra time if it fails, which can run the test up to two times --retry=2 try to rerun a failing test up to twice, so up to three runss ...

Yep. in the current implementation, I'm not clear the difference between --retry=0 and --retry=1
