[Bug 42283] New: info user to fill a bug report if test report is worse than latest
https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42283 Bug ID: 42283 Summary: info user to fill a bug report if test report is worse than latest Product: WineHQ Apps Database Version: unspecified Hardware: x86 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: appdb-unknown Assignee: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org Reporter: winetest(a)luukku.com Distribution: --- If you look at wine weekly news there are lots of applications that have been improved but also some that have regressed. I think it would be good to add a logic there. If this version of wine is higher than last report one and the status is worse than last report. Then the website should print message to the test data reporter to fill a bug report at bug tracker. Or if the application has maintainer, maybe he should be informed with the message. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42283 --- Comment #1 from Rosanne DiMesio <dimesio(a)earthlink.net> --- This is a very bad idea. Just because one user's rating is lower than someone else's earlier one does not mean there is a regression. Users vary widely in experience, and some people get bad results simply because they don't know what they're doing. Conversely, there are also experienced users who give lower ratings because they do understand what they are doing--false platinums from users who didn't bother to read the rating definitions are a major problem. Differences in the host systems, esp. graphics hardware and drivers. can also lead to widely varying results. None of these things are bugs in Wine. As for notifying maintainers, they already know, since they are the ones who have to approve all test reports submitted for their entries. Maintainers and admins already have a common reply to use in cases they believe warrant a bug report: "Please consider filing a bug report (http://wiki.winehq.org/Bugs) if one does not exist already. If you are new to Bugzilla, consider asking for help at http://forum.winehq.org. Please remember to link your app to the bug report in the AppDB to help other users in the future." -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.
