"Delete this build" does not stop the current build process

[claudiob]

I have integrity running with delayed_job, so at times I have 1 running build and some pending builds.

When I push "Delete this build" on the running build, the build disappears from the web interface, but its process is not killed. The process continues in the background, and the pending builds do not start until that process has ended.

Is this a bug, or this does not concern you? In my case, my tests can last more than 30 minutes, and if I find out that the running build is somehow "wrong", I would like to kill it immediately, in order to be replaced by the next one in the queue.

Thanks

yeah, it'd be nice but I am not too concerned about it

Agree with claudiob.

Here, Rspec + Cucumber is about 1h and half.

I hear the concern, and have plans to investigate this myself. I'm going to keep it open, but tag it as low priority with regards to getting Integrity up to date with Gems, and passing tests.

Killing out of process workers is more complicated, but at least in process worker threads can be made to check a flag periodically and quit if their build is deleted.
