Re: [eclipse-dev] Fw: [Bug 215464] Regression in org.eclipse.core perf t

[Philippe P Mulet <philippe_mulet@xxxxxxxxxx>]

To me, grey simply means that this degradation
has an explanation. It doesn't mean the result is not interesting, but
it is pointing the finger at something else.
I don't mind changing the rule so that also positive results which are
tagged still remain grey (so we do not forget to remove the explanation
when it becomes irrelevant).

Am I the only person who thinks this is odd?

To me, the grey coloring means "there is something wrong with the
test (or
the system has changed in a way that invalidates it), so the result isn't
interesting" -- I don't actually care whether it's slower or faster.
For
example, ongoing fixes elsewhere could cause the test to run faster, making
the test *look* like it's working again, even though it's still not

Note that when a degradation comment is set on a test, the fingerprint
bar
becomes gray only if the test result is negative.

I released a degradation comment for the core headless startup test
(StartupTest.java) which points to this bug to explain the degradation.
