CI Test Config

Configuration file for quarantining driver tests in CI.

Purpose

This repository contains ci-test-config.json, which specifies which driver tests should be skipped during CI runs. Use this to temporarily disable flaky or troublesome driver tests while issues are being investigated.

Fields

• ignored.drivers: Array of driver names to skip tests for. Names must match exactly what appears in the DRIVERS: lines in metabase/.github/workflows/drivers.yml

  Valid driver names as of 2025-12:

  athena, bigquery-cloud-sdk, clickhouse, databricks, druid, druid-jdbc,
  mongo, mysql, oracle, postgres, presto-jdbc, redshift, snowflake,
  sparksql, sqlite, sqlserver, vertica
  

• metadata: Tracking information for the changes

  • last_updated: Date of the change
  • updated_by: Who made the change
  • reason: Why the tests are being quarantined

Usage

To quarantine a driver's tests:

1. Add the driver name to ignored.drivers
2. Update the metadata section with date, your name, and reason
3. Open a PR with your changes

To restore tests after the issue is fixed:

1. Remove the driver from ignored.drivers
2. Update metadata accordingly
