Hi All,

We intend to bring the following change in our gerrit based workflow:

- Introduce +2 and -2 for Verified in Gerrit
- +2 for Verified to be necessary for merging a patch

The intent of this proposed change is to get additional test coverage
and reduce the number of regressions that can sneak by. Jenkins would
continue to provide +1s for all submitted changes that pass basic
smoke tests. An additional +2 would be necessary from somebody who
tests the patch. Providing a +2 for Verified would be semantically
similar to adding a Tested-by: tag.
I have a basic doubt here.. How is +2 verified different than +1
verified, which is currently provided by either the author or someone
else or both. I assume that the Jenkins +1 verified is not the only
thing that is seen by the maintainer before merging the patch, he/she
should be looking at +1 verified from the author or someother person and
take the decision accordingly during merge.


That is not the work flow model we follow currently. Authors and testers do not provide +1 verified usually and patches do get accepted with +1 verified from Jenkins. The necessary condition today for accepting a patch is +2 Code Review and +1 Verified. With the proposed change it would become +2 Code Review and +2 Verified. This change would mean that we will not merge patches even accidentally when it has been acked by Jenkins only.

Thanks,
Vijay
