[Buildbot-devel] conditional buildStep based on results from previous step(s)?

[Mike Winter (miwinter)]

I did something like this for tracking cell-failures and assigning owners,
but the solution was made against 7.12 and we never upgraded to v8.

Here is the real-heart of the code:

for step in build.steps:
  key = generate_problem_key(name, step.getName())
  #key = "%s-%s" % (name, step.getName())
                   
  (step_result, text2) = step.getResults()
  if step_result != SUCCESS and step_result != SKIPPED:
    failures = self.readFailuresLog(step)
