Bug #3381

[Workbench] "jobs" view in Workbench shows failed job job but green progress bar
Description
A job failed and the status in the "jobs" view in Workbench shows it as failed but the proress bar is fully green.
The relevant job is qr1hi-8i9sb-n1yv047kymyjtxs .
Screenshot is attached.
(TC) This is probably caused by Workbench's attempt to show {#done, #failed, #running, #todo} in the progress bar as {green,red,blue,empty} respectively: {150,2,0,0} is likely indistinguishable from {100,0,0,0} in a 100-pixel progress bar. Requirements (which we expect to address this case as well as similar situations like "1 task failed, 999 never attempted"):- Do not show a progress bar at all for a job that is not running right now. Instead, each job should show exactly one status indicator: a progress bar if running, a label if queued/complete/failed. (Currently we display a progress bar and a label for each job, which makes it harder to distinguish states.)
- Do not try to express #failed/running in the progress bar. Only show #done. Use green ("success" class in bootstrap) if no tasks have failed yet, orange ("warning" class) if any failures have occurred.
- Rationale: 0/1000 and 1/1000 are nearly equal if you're measuring doneness, but they're very different if you're measuring failures. Displaying a number of failures as a proportion of total work is not especially sensible.
- Near (beside or below) each progress bar, show "A tasks done, B failures, C todo, D running". (This is a better way to provide the additional detail that we previously tried to pack in to the progressbar.)
Incidentally, the dashboard mockups at Workbench UI images show pipelines as sets of tiny "progress or status" blobs. It isn't necessary to match the styling in the mockups -- just offering as a preview / reference point.

It appears that problem is due to incorrect percentages sum for the progress bar. Please see attached.
When I inspect element for the progress bar for this job, I see that success is computed as 99% and failed as 2% and hence the 2% is not showing up. If I were to manually tweak the failed percentage to 1%, I see red for the failed.
I will look into why the percentage sum is over 100%.
Updated by Radhika Chippada over 9 years ago
Notes on the fix I implemented:
The issue was occurring due to conversion of percentages computed into integers using ceil method. Due to this, in this particular job's case, the total of the percentages computed is > 100% (99% success and 2% failures to be precise, instead of 98.8% success and 1.2% failures) and hence the offending failures percentage was not rendered.
I removed the conversion into integers by removing the ceil method and I now see the failures in red.
Let me know if this is not sufficient, and if we indeed want to display actual numbers instead of the progress bar.

Radhika,
I took a look at 52f0c22, and it was a definite improvement. It would help avoid situations where "failed" progress is nudged off the edge of the bar by rounding. Thanks.
However, I wasn't sure if it would be sufficient to cover some of the related situations that Tom talked about in the description. I pinged him about it, and he clarified which parts he considers requirements for this story. Could you please take a look and update the branch to match? Thank you.

Reviewing 2c7b720
I'm getting a bunch of Workbench test failures. There are lots of 422s with a stack trace starting like:
Processing by ProjectsController#index as HTML Rendered projects/_show_dashboard.html.erb (178.0ms) #<TypeError: no implicit conversion of Symbol into Integer> /home/brett/repos/arvados/apps/workbench/app/views/projects/_show_dashboard.html.erb:36:in `[]' /home/brett/repos/arvados/apps/workbench/app/views/projects/_show_dashboard.html.erb:36:in `block (2 levels) in _app_views_projects__show_das hboard_html_erb__2688463059846288523_94558320' /home/brett/repos/arvados/apps/workbench/app/views/projects/_show_dashboard.html.erb:35:in `each' /home/brett/repos/arvados/apps/workbench/app/views/projects/_show_dashboard.html.erb:35:in `block in _app_views_projects__show_dashboard_html _erb__2688463059846288523_94558320'
I don't get these failures on master. Can you please investigate?
Everything else pertains to _running_component.html.erb:
- If I'm following the blocks correctly, I'm not sure how it's possible to get into the
elsif current_job[:state] == "Queued"branch. It looks like a follow-up toif current_job, meaning if we get to theelsif,current_jobis either false or nil, and calling[]on it will crash. Am I missing something here? If not, should any of this get rolled into the new Queued state branch? - You can use Rails'
pluralizemethod to pluralize "tasks," rather than manually adding an "s". - The column offset comments don't seem to be consistent. It seems like they all document what the offset is before the following div, except the first one, which lists 3 instead of 0. Can you please make them consistent, or otherwise clarify what's going on here?
Thanks.

You're right, it got screwed up somewhere down the line. I reorganized that whole block of code to fix some problems and it should be easier to follow (and properly indented!)

Thanks. The new current_job[:state] "Queued" branch says it's column offset 3, but it's actually 5. Please go ahead and merge with that fixed.
