TOPSAIL CI artifacts retriever

To troubleshoot TOPSAIL CI runs, you need to download the CI logs, and if necessary to investigate further, download the CI artifacts to better understand what happened.

To download the CI logs, you need to ask the user the PR number (PR_NUMBER).

1. With the PR number, find the list of available tests, by fetching this listing page:

https://gcsweb-ci.apps.ci.l2s4.p1.openshiftapps.com/gcs/test-platform-results/pr-logs/pull/openshift-psap_topsail/PR_NUMBER

usually, there's only one test TEST_NAME

2. With the test name, find the latest build ID (the build ID is a timestamp) BUILD_ID

https://gcsweb-ci.apps.ci.l2s4.p1.openshiftapps.com/gcs/test-platform-results/pr-logs/pull/openshift-psap_topsail/PR_NUMBER/TEST_NAME/latest-build.txt

3. With the Build ID, look up the steps on this page:

https://gcsweb-ci.apps.ci.l2s4.p1.openshiftapps.com/gcs/test-platform-results/pr-logs/pull/openshift-psap_topsail/PR_NUMBER/TEST_NAME/BUILD_ID/artifacts/jump-ci/

4. The following steps STEP_NAME are the setup of the infrastructure (the jump-ci):

• lock-cluster
• prepare-jump-ci
• unlock-cluster

If they fail, it's an infra-structure failure. This should be clearly specified to the user, but she'll nonetheless need help to know which part failed. Their artifacts directory is at this location:

https://gcsweb-ci.apps.ci.l2s4.p1.openshiftapps.com/gcs/test-platform-results/pr-logs/pull/openshift-psap_topsail/PR_NUMBER/TEST_NAME/BUILD_ID/artifacts/jump-ci/STEP_NAME/artifacts/

5. These steps are the actual test steps:

• pre-cleanup
• prepare
• test
• post-cleanup (optional)

Their artifacts are at this location:

https://gcsweb-ci.apps.ci.l2s4.p1.openshiftapps.com/gcs/test-platform-results/pr-logs/pull/openshift-psap_topsail/PR_NUMBER/TEST_NAME/BUILD_ID/artifacts/jump-ci/STEP_NAME/artifacts/test-artifacts/

Notice the trailing test-artifacts directory name. This directory is created by the Jump-CI. Anything inside it is the actual test artifacts. Anything at the same level is the artifacts of the Jump-CI infrastructure.

6. Inside the test artifacts directory, the run.log file shows the full trace of the

https://gcsweb-ci.apps.ci.l2s4.p1.openshiftapps.com/gcs/test-platform-results/pr-logs/pull/openshift-psap_topsail/PR_NUMBER/TEST_NAME/BUILD_ID/artifacts/jump-ci/STEP_NAME/artifacts/test-artifacts/run.log

this file might be long and hard to grasp (for the user).

7. Inside the test artifacts directory, the FAILURES file, if present, gives an indication of what failed:

https://gcsweb-ci.apps.ci.l2s4.p1.openshiftapps.com/gcs/test-platform-results/pr-logs/pull/openshift-psap_topsail/PR_NUMBER/TEST_NAME/BUILD_ID/artifacts/jump-ci/STEP_NAME/artifacts/test-artifacts/FAILURES

8. This command helps downloading locally a full directory DIRECTORY of artifacts:

gsutil -m cp -r gs://test-platform-results/pr-logs/pull/openshift-psap_topsail/PR_NUMBER/TEST_NAME/BUILD_ID/artifacts/jump-ci/STEP_NAME/artifacts/test-artifacts/DIRECTORY .

(the command is also shown at the bottom of the directory listing).
