Implement retry logic for lab tests #665

Closed nuclearcat closed 1 week ago

nuclearcat commented 1 week ago

In situations of unreliable test results kernel maintainers often need to rerun the tests to ensure the results are correct. This can be due to a variety of reasons such as flaky tests, network issues, or other transient failures. Previous attempts to implement retry logic have been unsuccessful due to the way the event logic implemented. Even if we spoof pubsub event and retry build node, the event logic will fetch nodeid with real data (different from spoofed) and will fail to trigger test event. This time we will put more effort to implement retry logic for lab tests. Further information will be posted as follow-up comments.
