wrong - we should run
a spurious failure again and get the "+1" since we know it only fails
spuriously :-). If it fails
consistently then there is something odd with the patch. All it
requires is another trigger in
Jenkins.
+1. Providing a manual verified vote for spurious test failures is an interim workaround and should not be utilized for an extended period of time. That is one of the prime reasons why we have only very few folks that can provide a +1 verified vote.
In addition, we cannot have a test case with spurious failure(s) being in the repository for long. Carrying such test cases can only confuse those who are not aware of known spurious failures. We need to have a better turnaround time for such test cases or temporarily drop them from the repository.
