Description Ross Burton 2015-11-09 15:42:02 UTC 
The output from lttng-tools ptest run confuses the analysis performed by QA because it puts the random filename in the test name:

Tests that were skipped now and worked last time: 105
122 - Create session filter-invalid in /tmp/tmp.ggjZFtoNAC
176 - Create session valid_filter in /tmp/tmp.DRUvRO7Jwq
200 - Create session valid_filter in /tmp/tmp.MMU7vk96YY
236 - Create session valid_filter in /tmp/tmp.IHrTQbNhX9
158 - Create session valid_filter in /tmp/tmp.2taP1G9mWa
68 - Create session valid_filter in /tmp/tmp.c6dBcPrKrS
128 - Create session valid_filter in /tmp/tmp.Tgke5PRwSB
...

Tests that were skipped last time and worked now: 105
20 - Create session valid_filter in /tmp/tmp.WLtjk0hsWD
56 - Create session filter-invalid in /tmp/tmp.WiU0973Q1S
29 - Create session filter-invalid in /tmp/tmp.WiU0973Q1S
218 - Create session valid_filter in /tmp/tmp.G8JDZ0rVvp
140 - Create session valid_filter in /tmp/tmp.RD7mJdOEID

We should patch the tests to not emit the random filename in the output.

Robert, this seems like an easy problem to fix but the previous owner hasn't closed it. We do want to have lttng-tools ptests pass so please find someone to work on this soon.
