…ents on failed test issues (elastic#173430) ## Summary After a PR is merged, CI runs all the tests on `main`. If one fails, a github issue with the label `failed-test` is created. If you comment `/skip` on the issue then a workflow action will skip the test directly on the failing branches. This workflow can only be used by contributors who have `admin` access to Kibana, OR to people who are on an allow-list of elastic teams. The list of teams allowed is `appex-qa`. This PR adds another team to the list: @elastic/security-solution-test-skippers This team was just created to allow a small list of Security Solution contributors the ability to use this workflow. Allowing a few of us access to this workflow will allow Security to triage our own test by writing `/skip` comments. ### Without this PR we have to: Without this PR we have to do a bunch of stuff to skip our own flaky tests: 1. Manually edit the files to create a PR on all affected branches. 2. Create PRs using the web app. 3. Get a second developer to approve the PR. 4. Wait for CI. 5. Merge the PR. This process is slow because of manual steps, and because CI must run before we can skip the test. At a minimum we should expect that process to take as long as CI takes (e.g. 90 minutes.) But the PRs that are meant to skip tests may also in turn be blocked by flaky tests. It also requires coordination from 2 people to make and approve the PR. ### Code references [skip-failed-test.yml](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/blob/main/.github/workflows/skip-failed-test.yml#L25-L30) is where the workflow is defined [Docs on the syntax for workflows.](https://docs.github.com/en/actions/using-workflows/workflow-syntax-for-github-actions#jobsjob_idstepsuses) [permission-check/index.ts](https://github.com/elastic/kibana-github-actions/blob/main/permission-check/index.ts#L23-L26) is where the permission check is implemented.

Summary
After a PR is merged, CI runs all the tests on
main
. If one fails, a github issue with the labelfailed-test
is created. If you comment/skip
on the issue then a workflow action will skip the test directly on the failing branches.This workflow can only be used by contributors who have
admin
access to Kibana, OR to people who are on an allow-list of elastic teams. The list of teams allowed isappex-qa
.This PR adds another team to the list: @elastic/security-solution-test-skippers
This team was just created to allow a small list of Security Solution contributors the ability to use this workflow.
Allowing a few of us access to this workflow will allow Security to triage our own test by writing
/skip
comments.Without this PR we have to:
Without this PR we have to do a bunch of stuff to skip our own flaky tests:
This process is slow because of manual steps, and because CI must run before we can skip the test. At a minimum we should expect that process to take as long as CI takes (e.g. 90 minutes.) But the PRs that are meant to skip tests may also in turn be blocked by flaky tests. It also requires coordination from 2 people to make and approve the PR.
