The change https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/51900/ is a faulty update of the mediawiki core message file for the AR language. All messages have been removed from the file.
Since the l10n-bot vote CR+2 / V+2 and then submit the patch, the unit tests are entirely bypassed.
Marius Hoch proposed to white list l10n-bot so tests are run on submission:
https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/51972/ . I guess we should just run the gate and submit job instead. The workflow would thus need to be updated to something like:
- l10n-bot send the patch
- jenkins run the check scripts (just linting, no unit tests)
- l10n-bot votes CR+2
- jenkins trigger the gate-and-submit job
- whenever the tests are successful, jenkins merge the change
That would let us catch regressions before landing changes in master.
