minitest-optional_retry

This plugin extends minitest to automatically rerun failed tests up to twice more. If a subsequent run passes, the suite as a whole will pass. This is useful to recover from flaky tests.

Usage

In your Gemfile: gem 'minitest-optional_retry'

Simpy include the main module in the test classes you want to automatically retry e.g.:

require 'minitest-optional_retry'
class ArticleTest < ActiveSupport::TestCase
  extend Minitest::OptionalRetry
end

Notes

If a test ends up failing all 3 of its runs, the reported failure will be the failure of the first run.
