#154 Start triage guide for Taskotron
Closed: Invalid 6 years ago Opened 9 years ago by tflink.

As we get closer to deploying Taskotron to production, the number of users who will be reading output from Taskotron tasks will increase but at the moment, we have no real triage guide for Taskotron failures.

Start the creation of the Taskotron triage guide, using common errors (missing args on cli, not-supplied input in tasks etc.) as a starting point.


Can you explain what //triage guide// is? Is it something like this https://wiki.gnome.org/Bugsquad/TriageGuide ?

I see a triage guide as containing three things:

a list of common failure modes for task authors to hit and solutions to fixing those issues

at least links to common failures for core checks/tasks (there is some overlap with #242)

tutorial/docs on how to triage failed tasks for failure modes not listed above (where to find logs, how to attempt reproduction, how to isolate issues etc.)

Is that any clearer?

We have docs for libtaskotron/runner, and docs for individual tasks. It still doesn't cover everything here, but since we haven't done it in 3 years, let's close this ticket.
