Test Debugging
September 4, 2025 ยท View on GitHub
When tests fail on a specific platform or GPU, see these instructions for suggestions on how to debug and file useful bug reports.
Debugging when tests fail on GitHub workflows
When tests fail on a GitHub Actions CI workflow, developers can follow the Test Environment Reproduction guide to run tests locally, at which point they can enable additional logging and perform other debugging. See also (TODO: link) for instructions on how to bootstrap your local build from CI artifacts.
TODO: some way to opt in for additional logging as parpt of a CI workflow? We
could add a debug boolean option to workflow_dispatch for try-jobs.
Per-project debugging guides
Many ROCm subprojects control logging and additional debugging via environment variables. Here is a collection of some of the subproject documentation.
