Subject: Crediting test authors
Date: Fri, 25 Jul 2025 08:00:23 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250725080023.6425488c@kernel.org> (raw)

Hi!

Does anyone have ideas about crediting test authors or tests for bugs
discovered?  We increasingly see situations where someone adds a test
then our subsystem CI uncovers a (1 in a 100 runs) bug using that test.

Using reported-by doesn't feel right. But credit should go to the
person who wrote the test. Is anyone else having this dilemma?
