Our wiki has four versions of "the command to run before you merge", the CI file has a fifth, and they disagree about browsers and retries. Every time we change a gate someone has to find all five.
Is there something in SDODS for this, or do I write a Makefile?
Accepted answer
Processes. A process is a named run recipe that lives in the project or workspace YAML:
processes:
- name: pr-check
title: Pull request check
trigger: pr
tags: '@smoke'
browsers: [chromium]
harMode: replay
gates: { minPassRate: 100 }
- name: nightly-regression
trigger: nightly
tags: '@regression'
browsers: [chromium, firefox, webkit]
notify: [github]Then the command everybody types, and the one in CI, is the same short thing:
sdods run -p demo-shop --process pr-checkExplicit flags override the process's fields, so --process nightly-regression -b chromium is a legitimate way to run one browser of a nightly locally.
sdods processes list -p <slug> prints what exists:
Worth knowing where to put them. Processes under defaults.processes in the workspace file apply to every project; a project process with the same name overrides it wholesale.
So the pattern that scales is: the shape of pr-check in the workspace, and only the projects that genuinely differ redefining it. After that a change of gate or browser list is a YAML edit rather than a pull request against your CI file.

Ask it with the command you ran and the output you got, and it will be answered here.
