[Buildbot-devel] info needed on overall build result and waterfall display page

[Ian Peters-Campbell]

For #1, you can instantiate a build step with a number of handy parameters,
including:
haltOnFailureif True, a FAILURE of this build step will cause the build to
halt immediately. Steps with alwaysRun=True are still run. Generally
speaking, haltOnFailure implies flunkOnFailure (the default for most
BuildSteps). In some cases, particularly series of tests, it makes sense to
haltOnFailure if something fails early on but not flunkOnFailure. This can
be achieved with haltOnFailure=True, flunkOnFailure=False.
flunkOnWarningswhen True, a WARNINGS or FAILURE of this build step will mark
the overall build as FAILURE. The remaining steps will still be executed.
flunkOnFailurewhen True, a FAILURE of this build step will mark the overall
build as a FAILURE. The remaining steps will still be executed.
warnOnWarningswhen True, a WARNINGS or FAILURE of this build step will mark
the overall build as having WARNINGS. The remaining steps will still be
executed.
warnOnFailurewhen True, a FAILURE of this build step will mark the overall
build as having WARNINGS. The remaining steps will still be executed. Those
should allow you to have pretty fine-grained control over your
succes/failure based on individual step results.
