[Watcher] Improved error messages for CronEvalTool #32800

lipsill · 2018-08-12T10:38:18Z

CronEvalTool prints an error only for cron expressions that result in
no coming time events.

If a cron expression results in less than the specified -count
(default 10) time events, the CronEvalTool prints all the coming
times and displays no error message.

Fixes #32735

CronEvalTool prints an error only for cron expressions that result in no coming time events. If a cron expression results in less than the specified `-count` (default 10) time events, the CronEvalTool prints all the coming times and displays no error message. Fixes elastic#32735

Thanks a bunch for tackling this! I left some comments to simplify the code and make the tests more readable.

Would be awesome if you could take a further look, but I am happy to take over if you do not want to!

        }
+        terminal.println((i == count ? "Here are the next " : "There are ") + i + " times this cron expression will trigger:");


I don't think we need this special handling here (introducing state that requires following by filling up the list). Just adding the additional if-statement plus break should be sufficient.

I made the change as originally the following results were printed by the cli tool:
0 0 0 1-6 * ? resulted in

Valid! Now is [Wed, 15 Aug 2018 11:28:34] Here are the next 10 times this cron expression will trigger: 1. Sat, 1 Sep 2018 02:00:00 2. Sun, 2 Sep 2018 02:00:00 3. Mon, 3 Sep 2018 02:00:00 4. Tue, 4 Sep 2018 02:00:00 5. Wed, 5 Sep 2018 02:00:00 6. Thu, 6 Sep 2018 02:00:00 7. Mon, 1 Oct 2018 02:00:00 8. Tue, 2 Oct 2018 02:00:00 9. Wed, 3 Oct 2018 02:00:00 10. Thu, 4 Oct 2018 02:00:00

And a one time cron, such as 0 3 23 8 9 ? 2019 resulted in

Valid! Now is [Wed, 15 Aug 2018 11:29:37] Here are the next 10 times this cron expression will trigger: 1. Mon, 9 Sep 2019 01:03:00

I found it is a little bit confusing that in this case the message was Here are the next 10 time and only a single one was printed, hence I tried to clarify the message.

I will revert the change.

can you replace assertTrue/assertFalse with

assertThat(output, containsString("FoObar")); assertThat(output, not(containsString("ERROR")));

This way the assertion will return something helpful instead of just being true or false in order to ease debugging.

lipsill · 2018-08-15T11:47:57Z

@spinscale thanks for the feedback! I just pushed the changes. Can you have another look?

spinscale · 2018-08-16T08:27:47Z

@elasticmachine test this please

spinscale

left two super minor things I'd like to fix, but apart from that it's good. let's see what CI has to say!

in order to keep the diff small, can you keep the imports as is?

@spinscale I hope I addressed your latest comments.
Thanks for kicking a complete CI ;)

@elasticmachine test this please

lipsill · 2018-08-16T13:05:57Z

Hm... the second CI run finished with an error that I cannot reproduce locally. I actually doubt that the test failure is caused by the changes in this PR.
@spinscale can you have a look when you have a chance? Thanks!

spinscale · 2018-08-20T07:12:09Z

@elasticmachine retest this please

spinscale · 2018-08-20T07:12:40Z

once CI passes, I'll merge this. Thanks a lot for helping!

spinscale · 2018-08-20T10:17:15Z

@elasticmachine retest this please

spinscale · 2018-08-21T15:03:10Z

may I ask you to merge the master branch into yours one more time, so we can trigger CI and see if it passes? Thanks a ton!

lipsill · 2018-08-22T10:34:01Z

@spinscale done! Let's see if this helps ;)

CronEvalTool prints an error only for cron expressions that result in no upcoming time events. If a cron expression results in less than the specified count (default 10) time events, now all the coming times are printed without displaying error message. Closes #32735
