Add a self-contained composite action that converts JUnit test failures into Jira tickets and uploads test metrics to GCS for BigQuery.

Unlike the stackrox/stackrox junit2jira action, this bundles its own helper script (via GITHUB_ACTION_PATH) so calling repositories do not need to provide scripts/ci helpers. This lets multiple repos (e.g. collector) reuse it.

  • Optional gcp-account input: authenticate gcloud in-action, or reuse an existing session from the caller.
  • Configurable jira-url, gcs-bucket and gcs-subdir (previously hard-coded).
  • gcp-metrics toggle to skip the metrics upload independently of Jira.

📝 Walkthrough

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Added a GitHub Action that reports JUnit test failures to Jira.
    • Automatically records failed jobs without test failures for improved failure tracking.
    • Supports configurable failure thresholds, dry-run mode, release versions, and optional GCP authentication.
    • Adds optional test metrics uploads to Google Cloud Storage.
    • Exposes whether new Jira issues were created.
  • Documentation
    • Added setup instructions, configuration details, permissions, inputs, outputs, and usage examples.
    • Listed the new action in the project README.

Walkthrough

Adds the junit2jira composite GitHub Action, its Bash helper, documentation, and repository listing. The action captures missing JUnit failures, reports failures to Jira, exposes newly created issues, and optionally uploads metrics to GCS.

Changes

junit2jira action

Layer / File(s) Summary
Action contract and documentation
test/junit2jira/action.yml, test/junit2jira/README.md, README.md
Defines Jira, JUnit, threshold, GCP, metrics, storage, and version inputs. Exposes the new-jiras output. Documents permissions, options, and usage examples.
Synthetic JUnit failure capture
test/junit2jira/junit2jira.sh
Detects existing JUnit failures and creates escaped synthetic failure records for failed jobs without test failures. It extracts failed steps from workflow JSON and provides an infrastructure-failure fallback.
Reporting and metrics workflow
test/junit2jira/action.yml, test/junit2jira/junit2jira.sh
Downloads or reuses the release binary, configures optional GCP authentication, reports failures to Jira, exports the created-issue status, and uploads CSV metrics to GCS when configured.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Mergeability Score: 🟠 High · up to 6c9c6

The action currently interpolates dynamic values into shell commands and may execute an unintended workspace binary with the Jira token, creating a risk of command execution or credential exposure. It is not merge-ready until these execution and isolation issues are fixed.

In `@test/junit2jira/action.yml`:
- Around line 82-86: Update the action’s shell command invocations to pass
dynamic GitHub expressions and action inputs through environment variables, then
use only quoted shell-variable expansions for the affected values in the command
blocks around the run URL and lines 108-137. Ensure values such as
github.ref_name and inputs.directory cannot be interpreted as Bash command
substitutions.
- Around line 64-68: Update the junit2jira setup and invocation to use a
version-specific directory under RUNNER_TEMP rather than checking or executing a
workspace junit2jira file. Download the release binary into that directory,
export its full path via GITHUB_ENV, and change the action’s later invocation to
use the exported path while preserving the existing VERSION-based URL.

Execute only the downloaded junit2jira binary.

The existence check accepts any workspace executable and runs it with JIRA_TOKEN. It also ignores VERSION, so repeated action use can run a previously downloaded release. Store each download under a unique $RUNNER_TEMP directory, export its full path through $GITHUB_ENV, and invoke that path at lines 115-127.

Pass dynamic values through environment variables.

GitHub expands expressions before Bash parses run. A value containing $(...) in github.ref_name or an action input executes as command substitution, even inside double quotes. Apply this to the dynamic values in lines 82-86 and 108-137. Use quoted shell-variable expansions only.
