Flaky Tests AI Finder for Uyuni and MLM Test Suites by oscar-barrios

Description

Our current Grafana dashboards provide a great overview of test suite health, including a panel for "Top failed tests." However, identifying which of these failures are due to legitimate bugs versus intermittent "flaky tests" is a manual, time-consuming process. These flaky tests erode trust in our test suites and slow down development.

This project aims to build a simple but powerful Python script that automates flaky test detection. The script will directly query our Prometheus instance for the historical data of each failed test, using the jenkins_build_test_case_failure_age metric. It will then format this data and send it to the Gemini API with a carefully crafted prompt, asking it to identify which tests show a flaky pattern.

The final output will be a clean JSON list of the most probable flaky tests, which can then be used to populate a new "Top Flaky Tests" panel in our existing Grafana test suite dashboard.

Goals

By the end of Hack Week, we aim to have a single, working Python script that:

1. Connects to Prometheus and executes a query to fetch detailed test failure history.
2. Processes the raw data into a format suitable for the Gemini API.
3. Successfully calls the Gemini API with the data and a clear prompt.
4. Parses the AI's response to extract a simple list of flaky tests.
5. Saves the list to a JSON file that can be displayed in Grafana.
6. New panel in our Dashboard listing the Flaky tests

Resources

• Jenkins Prometheus Exporter: https://github.com/uyuni-project/jenkins-exporter/
• Data Source: Our internal Prometheus server.
• Key Metric: jenkins_build_test_case_failure_age{jobname, buildid, suite, case, status, failedsince}.
• Existing Query for Reference: count by (suite) (max_over_time(jenkins_build_test_case_failure_age{status=~"FAILED|REGRESSION", jobname="$jobname"}[$__range])).
• AI Model: The Google Gemini API.
• Example about how to interact with Gemini API: https://github.com/srbarrios/FailTale/
• Visualization: Our internal Grafana Dashboard.
• Internal IaC: https://gitlab.suse.de/galaxy/infrastructure/-/tree/master/srv/salt/monitoring

Outcome

• Jenkins Flaky Test Detector: https://github.com/srbarrios/jenkins-flaky-tests-detector and its container
• IaC on MLM Team: https://gitlab.suse.de/galaxy/infrastructure/-/tree/master/srv/salt/monitoring/jenkinsflakytestsdetector?reftype=heads, https://gitlab.suse.de/galaxy/infrastructure/-/blob/master/srv/salt/monitoring/grafana/dashboards/flaky-tests.json?ref_type=heads, and others.

Play with the userfaultfd(2) system call and download on demand using HTTP Range Requests with Golang by rbranco

Description

The userfaultfd(2) is a cool system call to handle page faults in user-space. This should allow me to list the contents of an ISO or similar archive without downloading the whole thing. The userfaultfd(2) part can also be done in theory with the PROT_NONE mprotect + SIGSEGV trick, for complete Unix portability, though reportedly being slower.

Goals

1. Create my own library for userfaultfd(2) in Golang.
2. Create my own library for HTTP Range Requests.
3. Complete portability with Unix.
4. Benchmarks.
5. Contribute some tests to LTP.

Create a go module to wrap happy-compta.fr by cbosdonnat

Description

https://happy-compta.fr is a tool for french work councils simple book keeping. While it does the job, it has no API to work with and it is tedious to enter loads of operations.

Goals

Write a go client module to be used as an API to programmatically manipulate the tool.

Writing an example tool to load data from a CSV file would be good too.

Updatecli Autodiscovery supporting WASM plugins by olblak

Description

Updatecli is a Golang Update policy engine that allow to write Update policies in YAML manifest. Updatecli already has a plugin ecosystem for common update strategies such as automating Dockerfile or Kubernetes manifest from Git repositories.

This is what we call autodiscovery where Updatecli generate manifest and apply them dynamically based on some context.

Obviously, the Updatecli project doesn't accept plugins specific to an organization.

I saw project using different languages such as python, C#, or JS to generate those manifest.

It would be great to be able to share and reuse those specific plugins

During the HackWeek, I'll hang on the Updatecli matrix channel

https://matrix.to/#/#Updatecli_community:gitter.im

Goals

Implement autodiscovery plugins using WASM. I am planning to experiment with https://github.com/extism/extism

To build a simple WASM autodiscovery plugin and run it from Updatecli

Contribute to terraform-provider-libvirt by pinvernizzi

Description

The SUSE Manager (SUMA) teams' main tool for infrastructure automation, Sumaform, largely relies on terraform-provider-libvirt. That provider is also widely used by other teams, both inside and outside SUSE.

It would be good to help the maintainers of this project and give back to the community around it, after all the amazing work that has been already done.

If you're interested in any of infrastructure automation, Terraform, virtualization, tooling development, Go (...) it is also a good chance to learn a bit about them all by putting your hands on an interesting, real-use-case and complex project.

Goals

• Get more familiar with Terraform provider development and libvirt bindings in Go
• Solve some issues and/or implement some features
• Get in touch with the community around the project

Resources

• CONTRIBUTING readme
• Go libvirt library in use by the project
• Terraform plugin development
• "Good first issue" list

go-git: unlocking SHA256-based repository cloning ahead of git v3 by pgomes

Description

The go-git library implements the git internals in pure Go, so that any Go application can handle not only Git repositories, but also lower-level primitives (e.g. packfiles, idxfiles, etc) without needing to shell out to the git binary.

The focus for this Hackweek is to fast track key improvements for the project ahead of the upstream release of Git V3, which may take place at some point next year.

Goals

• Add support for cloning SHA256 repositories.
• Decrease memory churn for very large repositories (e.g. Linux Kernel repository).
• Cut the first alpha version for go-git/v6.

Stretch goals

• Review and update the official documentation.
• Optimise use of go-git in Fleet.
• Create RFC/example for go-git plugins to improve extensibility.
• Investigate performance bottlenecks for Blame and Status.
