execution_order:
type: ``'str'``
Defines the order in which the agenda spec will be executed. At the
moment, the following execution orders are supported:
``"by_iteration"``
The first iteration of each workload spec is executed one after
the other, so all workloads are executed before proceeding on
to the second iteration. E.g. A1 B1 C1 A2 C2 A3. This is the
default if no order is explicitly specified.
In case of multiple sections, this will spread them out, such
that specs from the same section are further part. E.g. given
sections X and Y, global specs A and B, and two iterations,
this will run ::
X.A1, Y.A1, X.B1, Y.B1, X.A2, Y.A2, X.B2, Y.B2
``"by_section"``
Same as ``"by_iteration"``, however this will group specs from
the same section together, so given sections X and Y, global
specs A and B, and two iterations, this will run ::
X.A1, X.B1, Y.A1, Y.B1, X.A2, X.B2, Y.A2, Y.B2
``"by_spec"``
All iterations of the first spec are executed before moving on
to the next spec. E.g. A1 A2 A3 B1 C1 C2.
``"random"``
Execution order is entirely random.
allowed values: ``'by_iteration'``, ``'by_spec'``, ``'by_section'``, ``'random'``
default: ``'by_iteration'``
reboot_policy:
type: ``'RebootPolicy'``
This defines when during execution of a run the Device will be
rebooted. The possible values are:
``"as_needed"``
The device will only be rebooted if the need arises (e.g. if it
becomes unresponsive.
``"never"``
The device will never be rebooted.
``"initial"``
The device will be rebooted when the execution first starts,
just before executing the first workload spec.
``"each_spec"``
The device will be rebooted before running a new workload spec.
.. note:: this acts the same as each_iteration when execution order
is set to by_iteration
``"each_iteration"``
The device will be rebooted before each new iteration.
allowed values: ``'never'``, ``'as_needed'``, ``'initial'``, ``'each_spec'``, ``'each_iteration'``
default: ``'as_needed'``
device:
type: ``'str'``
This setting defines what specific Device subclass will be used to
interact the connected device. Obviously, this must match your
setup.
default: ``'generic_android'``
retry_on_status:
type: ``'list_of_Enums'``
This is list of statuses on which a job will be considered to have
failed and will be automatically retried up to ``max_retries``
times. This defaults to ``["FAILED", "PARTIAL"]`` if not set.
Possible values are::
``"OK"``
This iteration has completed and no errors have been detected
``"PARTIAL"``
One or more instruments have failed (the iteration may still be running).
``"FAILED"``
The workload itself has failed.
``"ABORTED"``
The user interrupted the workload
allowed values: ``RUNNING``, ``OK``, ``PARTIAL``, ``FAILED``, ``ABORTED``, ``SKIPPED``
default: ``['FAILED', 'PARTIAL']``
max_retries:
type: ``'integer'``
The maximum number of times failed jobs will be retried before
giving up. If not set.
.. note:: this number does not include the original attempt
default: ``2``
bail_on_init_failure:
type: ``'boolean'``
When jobs fail during their main setup and run phases, WA will
continue attempting to run the remaining jobs. However, by default,
if they fail during their early initialization phase, the entire run
will end without continuing to run jobs. Setting this to ``False``
means that WA will instead skip all the jobs from the job spec that
failed, but continue attempting to run others.
default: ``True``
allow_phone_home:
type: ``'boolean'``
Setting this to ``False`` prevents running any workloads that are marked
with 'phones_home', meaning they are at risk of exposing information
about the device to the outside world. For example, some benchmark
applications upload device data to a database owned by the
maintainers.
This can be used to minimise the risk of accidentally running such
workloads when testing confidential devices.
default: ``True``
