Suggestion on Rerun Tests Documentation

[grndvl1]

jekyll/_cci2/rerun-failed-tests.adoc

Here in the documentation there is no example of how to rerun a failed test with CI and using Android or iOS builds.

Typically you'll see something like this for android a gradle command to run the UI tests that are annotated with @regression. Then because of sharding and using a gradle managed phone device the tests and data relevant are in multiple directories. These are copied into one and stored for reading and acting on the xml results with another action/CI job

    steps:
      - run:
          name: Android Test - App module (Regression/No fail)
          command: ./gradlew app:phonesGroupDebugAndroidTest -Pandroid.testInstrumentationRunnerArguments.annotation=com.android.annotation.Regression -info || true

      - run:
          name: Finding Artifacts
          command: |
            mkdir -p ~/test-results/junit/ \;
            mkdir -p ~/test-results/ui-tests/ \;
            mkdir -p ~/test-results/ui-tests/html/ \;
            mkdir -p ~/test-results/ui-tests/html/css \;
            mkdir -p ~/test-results/ui-tests/html/js \;
            find . -type f -regex ".*/build/outputs/androidTest-results/managedDevice/debug/*/*.*" -exec cp {} ~/test-results/ui-tests/ \;
            find . -type f -regex ".*/build/reports/androidTests/managedDevice/debug/allDevices/*.*" -exec cp {} ~/test-results/ui-tests/html/ \;
            find . -type f -regex ".*/build/reports/androidTests/managedDevice/debug/allDevices/css/*.*" -exec cp {} ~/test-results/ui-tests/html/css/ \;
            find . -type f -regex ".*/build/reports/androidTests/managedDevice/debug/allDevices/js/*.*" -exec cp {} ~/test-results/ui-tests/html/js/ \;
          when: always

      - store_test_results:
          path: ~/test-results

      - store_artifacts:
          path: ~/test-results/ui-tests

I don't see how the rerun tests will work for Android or iOS

Hi @grndvl1 thanks for this. Firstly, can I just check if your use case is very different to this example? https://circleci.com/docs/rerun-failed-tests/#configure-a-job-running-kotlin-or-gradle-tests

Thanks
