Java Integration, Playwright, and Poshi). Start it if it is not.When ${ARGUMENTS} is a positive integer, use it directly as the Testray case result ID.
When ${ARGUMENTS} is a URL of the form https://testray.liferay.com/#/project/<projectId>/routines/<routineId>/build/<buildId>?filter=<urlencoded-json>, resolve it to a case result ID by following references/testray.md. The procedure returns a case result ID that the rest of the workflow consumes identically to a user-supplied one.
When ${ARGUMENTS} is anything else, resolve it to a case result ID by following references/testray.md. When the resolution aborts, surface the reason and ask the user to retry with the case result ID directly.
Fetched at the start of the run by following references/testray.md, which covers authentication, name-to-ID resolution, and how to derive each field. When a test name was passed and the resolution aborts, surface the reason and ask the user to retry with the case result ID directly. When the case result is already PASSED, skip the workflow and exit with Verdict: No fix needed. When it is BLOCKED — a tester deliberately flagged it, so it must not be autofixed — skip the workflow and exit reporting that the case is blocked. Otherwise, the procedure returns these fields:
null when the case has no recorded failure history).null when the case has no recent pass on record).Java Integration, Java Semantic Versioning, Java Unit, JavaScript, Playwright, Poshi.The test name (class, spec, or method) returned by the Testray fetch. When the fetch fails before a name is known, use case-result <CASE_RESULT_ID>.
The test type returned by the Testray fetch (one of the values listed under Input). Use Unknown when the fetch fails before a type is known.
One of:
Bug in portal — product code carried the fix.No fix needed — the test passed locally on the first reproduction; nothing was changed.Outdated test — the test carried the fix.Unresolved — investigation did not converge, or any step aborted.One sentence describing the outcome:
Bug in portal and Outdated test, name the offending commit (short SHA and subject) and what it changed.No fix needed, the literal string Test passes locally.Unresolved, an honest handover summary listing hypotheses considered, attempts made, observed effects, and the most plausible remaining lead.The elapsed time of the run, formatted as <minutes>m <seconds>s.
The Task created in Claim the Failure is the persistent ticket of record for every verdict. Update it at the end of the run based on the verdict:
Bug in portal — invoke the jira-bug skill to create a separate Bug describing the regression. The title summarizes the regression. The description carries the failing test name, the trace, and the reproduction steps derived from the test scenario. Do not add the claude-test-fix label to the Bug — that label belongs to the Task alone, so the duplicate-ticket check in Claim the Failure matches one ticket per failure. Link the Bug to the Task with the Fix issue link type so the Task surfaces it as is fixed by. Return the Bug URL alongside the Task URL.
Outdated test — return the Task URL.
No fix needed — close the Task as Won't Do with a comment containing the literal Test passes locally. No PR is opened.
Unresolved — leave the Task in In Progress, append the handover summary as a comment, and return its URL so the human picking it up has a single landing page.
Only when the test was fixed (verdict Bug in portal or Outdated test): the URL of the pull request opened for the fix.
Make a commit, then find the owner of the changed files using <repo-root>/.github/CODEOWNERS and invoke the pr skill with it as the target repository. Override the user's title-only default and pass the body content explicitly so the pull request explains the regression.
Use this template. The browse URL on the first line points at the ticket the pr skill resolves (the Technical Task subtask, not the parent Task), so reviewers land on the same ticket where the pull request URL is recorded:
https://liferay.atlassian.net/browse/<TICKET>
## Failing Test
`<test-name>`
`<test-path>`
\`\`\`
<errorTrace>
\`\`\`
## Root Cause
Commit `<short-sha>` ("<subject>") <one or two sentences>.
## Fix
<one paragraph explaining the change and why it works>.
- `<file-1>`
- `<file-2>`
Check Jira for an LPD ticket whose summary contains <test-name> and is labeled claude-test-fix. Decide whether it already covers this failure by its state:
pr skill's rules for where it is recorded, derive its fix commit, and test whether it already reached the build that failed, judging by git merge-base --is-ancestor <fixSha> <buildSha>:
<buildSha> → the fix was already present when this build ran, yet the test still failed, so it does not cover this occurrence → proceed.<buildSha> → Testray has not retested since the fix merged, so the failure is already addressed → skip.<failureDate> proceeds, resolved on or after skips.When skipping and other candidates remain, retry with the next one.
Invoke the jira-task skill with summary <test-name> and a description that names the case result ID, the source build, and the failure trace excerpt. Add the claude-test-fix label.
Invoke the start-work skill on the new Task.
This step runs before any range or commit analysis. The test may already pass locally — when it does, the run ends here without any further investigation.
Inspect the test source to discover which feature flags it depends on. Mirror the CI setup before reproducing. Otherwise, the test path differs.
Poshi tests require flags in <bundles>/portal-ext.properties with Tomcat restarted to pick them up. Before editing the file for the first time in this run, snapshot it so it can be restored later. Then, strip every existing feature.flag.* entry and add only the flags the test requires — the file must end up with the test's flags and nothing else, so unrelated flags left over from previous runs cannot interfere. The original snapshot is restored later in Restore the Portal. Bounce Tomcat for the new flag values to take effect.
Playwright tests declare flags through the featureFlagsTest fixture under modules/test/playwright/fixtures. The fixture toggles them per test — no portal change is needed.
Run the test, deploying first when the type requires it. For Java Semantic Versioning, the "test" is <gradlew> baseline from the failing module — strictly an API contract check, not a behavioral test. For test types that exercise the runtime (Java Integration, Playwright, Poshi), also read the server log after the run; it captures portal-side exceptions, deployment errors, and stack traces that never reach errorTrace, and frequently names the real failure. Then compare the local outcome with errorTrace:
${FIRST_FAIL_SHA} and HEAD already addresses the failure. When one does, exit with Verdict: No fix needed. Otherwise, reason about why the test failed in CI (the test may be flaky or fail for environmental reasons). Try to fix it and rerun to confirm. When no plausible cause surfaces, exit with Verdict: No fix needed. Skip Identify Suspect Commits and Iterate Through Suspects in either case.Unresolved with a Conclusion summarizing both traces (the one returned by the Testray fetch and the one observed locally) and exit.The breaking change lies between ${LAST_PASS_SHA} and ${FIRST_FAIL_SHA}. List candidates from the diff between those two commits, then narrow by tracing the line history of the file owning the line nearest the failing assertion or the topmost frame in errorTrace.
When that does not point to a single commit, rank candidates: files in the test's own module first, then modules whose packages the test imports, then *-api / portal-kernel / shared frontend-js-*, then portal-impl / petra-* / shared infrastructure.
Apply candidate fixes as uncommitted changes; the Pull Request step commits them later. For each suspect in ranked order:
Read its documented intent — the commit message and diff, the linked LPD-XXXXX ticket (summary, issue type, description) when the subject carries one, and the body of the merged pull request that introduced the commit:
gh pr list --json number,title,body --repo brianchandotcom/liferay-portal --search "<sha>" --state merged
Look for explicit references to the failing test or asserted behavior, and for any sign that the change deliberately drops the contract the assertion was checking.
Apply a fix that touches the suspect's hunks. The fix must live inside the diff between ${LAST_PASS_SHA} and ${FIRST_FAIL_SHA} — that is the only place the regression can live, and a fix outside that range means the diagnosis is wrong. Never escalate the scope of the fix to force convergence. Adapt the test (Outdated test) — including removing, weakening, or @Ignore-ing an assertion — only when the offending commit's documentation (subject, linked Jira ticket, or PR body) explicitly states the contract change the assertion was checking; without that documented justification, the assertion is correct and the regression lives in product code (Bug in portal).
Run the test again.
When the test turns green, do not lock in the verdict immediately — keep reading the remaining suspects to confirm none of them is a stronger explanation. Settling on the first green fix is how a wrong fix gets shipped; only commit once no better candidate surfaces.
When the current candidate set is exhausted without green, broaden it (next-ranked files, infrastructure) and iterate again — up to three rounds. After the third round without convergence, or when candidates are exhausted, mark the failure as Unresolved with a Conclusion listing the suspects analyzed, attempts made, what each changed about the failure, and the most plausible remaining lead. Run the cleanup in Restore the Portal and exit.
Once the verdict is locked in (only ever after a green local run — never commit or open a PR otherwise), record the offending commit (short SHA + subject) and one sentence explaining how it broke the test — reused in the PR body's Root Cause section (see Pull Request).
This step is idempotent: the portal must end the run in the same state it started — Tomcat running with the original portal-ext.properties loaded.
When Set Feature Flags changed <bundles>/portal-ext.properties, restore the snapshot and bounce Tomcat to pick the original properties back up.
When Set Feature Flags was skipped because the test does not need flag changes, Tomcat keeps running untouched and there is nothing to do.
