"Reliable failures" shows things that have only failed once

Project Member Reported by mgiuca@chromium.org, Apr 26 2016

Issue description

Problem with Sheriff-o-Matic:
https://sheriff-o-matic.appspot.com/chromium/

I am seeing two failures right now that have failed exactly one time on the most recent build:
https://sheriff-o-matic.appspot.com/chromium/failure/compile%3A%3AMac
https://sheriff-o-matic.appspot.com/chromium/failure/ipc_mojo_unittests%3A%3AAndroid%20GN

I thought Reliable Failures was supposed to be for things that have failed at least 2x in a row. This makes it hard to tell the difference between flakes / infra issues and legitimate failures.

You are correct about the definition of Reliable Failures, so something is wrong in builder_alerts' interpretation of these logs. Bad news: I probably won't have time to debug this in builder_alerts.

Good news: I'm adding lots of tests for situations like this in alerts-dispatcher (builder_alerts' replacement). In this case, it flags ipc_mojo_unittests correctly as having failed only once: https://screenshot.googleplex.com/gXpS0zgETH6 and compile Mac doesn't even show up because (AFAICT) it's an infra step failure (purple), not an actual build step failure.

This issue is being archived because it refers to the old version of Sheriff-o-Matic and is no longer applicable.
