On a planet called Veridian III, a decisive battle was fought to prevent a future firing of a rocket into a star that would change gravitational forces and make "the nexus" crash into the planet as well as destroy the planet with a shock wave. Preventing this catastrophy made the crash of the USS Enterprise on the planet controllable as to suffer no human casualties.

In the same spirit, the project I internally dub "Veridian 3" is about dealing with crashes to make the bad ones preventable and other ones more controllable, all through prioritizing Socorro work.

Project areas

Those areas have been specified in the contract:

  • Improving Crash Data Integrity
    • Identification and Removal of Duplicate Crash reports
  • Improving Search Capabilities
  • Improving Classification and Characterization of Crash Reports and Improved Signature Generation
  • additional correlation reports to help identifying circumstances around the crash and steps to reproduce. [tag includes everything on correlations]
  • Improve Trend Reports to identify and alert teams about Explosive bugs [tag includes all trend reports]

Bugzilla Tags

Those are used for the classification of Socorro bugs, all starting with "V3", and those will be documented here. In brackets, there are bug counts as of 02/23.

  • V3-integrity (32): Affecting Crash Data Integrity, i.e. quality of the original data we have stored
  • V3-search (29): Search Capabilities
  • V3-classify (52): Classification and Characterization of Crash Reports and Signature Generation
  • V3-correlation (35): Correlation reports to help identifying circumstances around the crash and steps to reproduce
  • V3-trends (18): Trend Reports, e.g. to identify and alert teams about Explosive bugs
  • V3-UI (115): User Interface issues
  • V3-nonHTMLoutput (11): Non-HTML/web output (.csv, feeds, etc.) - currently in V3-UI
  • V3-notify (14): Notifications (to be) sent out by the Socorro system
  • V3-infra (108): Infrastructure and backend issues (note: out of the direct focus of my project, subject to internal planning in the Socorro team)
  • V3-config (21): Configuration adaptations (skiplist additions, etc.)
  • V3-productization (14): Making Socorro a product that can be deployed and understood by others (documentation, etc.)

Planned but not yet created (or not yet fully done) categories/tags:

  • V3-UItweaks (): UI tweaks (probably easy to solve, small UI issues) - subgroup of V3-UI
  • New reports (requests for generating new reports) - currently in V3-classify
  • Data requests (bugs that request data through manual jobs)

Comments From Socorro Users

<wsmwk> KaiRo: second tier needs might be bug 421119, bug 518823, bug 578376, bug 411354.  third tier: bug 527304, bug 512910, better workflow for updating skiplist)
