2015-01-05 09:24:34 Evan description We don't know if there's a maximum number of retries set for rabbit messages to the test runner, or if it reached this maximum through infrastructure failure that the message would go to a dead-letter queue and not be discarded. This should be investigated. What happens when a message on the test runner queue fails every time it is picked up? Is there a maximum number of retries? If this state is reached, does the message go to a dead-letter queue or is it discarded? The message should go to a dead-letter queue after some value of $MAX_RETRIES. It should not be discarded. This should be investigated.
