Use Cases¶

Use Cases for Workbench

I have a collection with buggy/suspect results. I need to figure out where in the pipeline the bug crept in.

• any big differences between the different "foo_XX" steps?
• flags passed to the "foo_XX" steps
• logs from one (all?) of the "bar_XX" steps
• docker image metadata (docker image ID, name, version, dockerfile)

I need to find a "good" workflow invocation, and compare it to something that isn't working now

• when did this workflow last succeed?

I have a collection that is valuable/interesting. I need to review/share/publish how it was generated (tools/versions/options/inputs).

I need to find some data, and confirm I'm looking at the right version.

I want to estimate how much money it will cost to run a workflow.

I want to know how long it will take to run my workflow.

• queued? when will it start?
• taking a long time? how long does it normally take?
• slower than it should be? should I run it with more CPUs, RAM, etc.?
