We talked about this briefly but I wanted to enter a bug so we didn't lose track. The new test result emails are nice because they have direct links to the test failures. Currently the messages look like: org.eclipse.equinox.p2.tests_linux.gtk.x86_6.0 http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/downloads/drops/N20101007-2000/testresults/xml/org.eclipse.equinox.p2.tests_linux.gtk.x86_6.0.xml Would it be possible to change them so you only see a line for the failed test component/platform and then the link would take you to the specific failure page? Or is this a problem because some people view the msg as plain text? (note they would still get the link to the main download page) Also, if this change is made, are you still able to drag and drop the link to the JUnit view to display results as per John's msg?

If it's correctly implemented (e.g. Thunderbird 3.1.4), then it works with HTML as well as with plain text messages. Other clients like Lotus Notes 8.5.2 don't support drag-and-drop of links, so it doesn't work nicely with either format. The only way I found to make it work in Notes is by selecting the full link in a plain text message and then dragging the text selection. (From bug 296009 comment #9) Same here. I find that list quite hard to parse. Even when viewing full-screen, it looks like this: org.eclipse.jdt.ui.tests_linux.gtk.x86_6.0 http://down.../org.eclipse.jdt.ui.tests_linux.gtk.x86_6.0.xml org.eclipse.jdt.ui.tests_macosx.cocoa.x86_5.0 http://down.../org.eclipse.jdt.ui.tests_macosx.cocoa.x86_5.0.xml Unfortunately, HTML links cannot be drag-and-dropped in all Email clients, so I guess the best compromise is to keep the original list of failing tests, followed by a list of links, i.e.: org.eclipse.jdt.ui.tests_linux.gtk.x86_6.0 org.eclipse.jdt.ui.tests_macosx.cocoa.x86_5.0 http://down.../org.eclipse.jdt.ui.tests_linux.gtk.x86_6.0.xml http://down.../org.eclipse.jdt.ui.tests_macosx.cocoa.x86_5.0.xml This would still allow me to see at a glance whether our tests are affected.

The new message looks like this with the fixes to the build. Build N20101007-2000 (Timestamp: 201010072000): Automated JUnit testing is complete. Test failures/errors occurred in the following: org.eclipse.equinox.p2.tests_linux.gtk.x86_6.0 org.eclipse.equinox.p2.tests_macosx.cocoa.x86_5.0 org.eclipse.equinox.p2.tests_win32.win32.x86_6.0 HTTP Download: http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/downloads/drops/N20101007-2000 Test result files (hint: copy/paste or drag-and-drop to the JUnit view): http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/downloads/drops/N20101007-2000/testresults/xml/org.eclipse.equinox.p2.tests_linux.gtk.x86_6.0.xml http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/downloads/drops/N20101007-2000/testresults/xml/org.eclipse.equinox.p2.tests_macosx.cocoa.x86_5.0.xml http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/downloads/drops/N20101007-2000/testresults/xml/org.eclipse.equinox.p2.tests_win32.win32.x86_6.0.xml
Created attachment 180496 [details] patch The code that generates the build messages is really ugly but it will go away when we switch to Hudson because it has email generation enabled natively. Anyways, this fixes the message for now.

The email for N20101010-2000 looks good.
