Description
Hi,
At the moment there are several events that can trigger a build. Some are missing though, like triggering a build when a reviewer has been added or a review has been (re)assigned. It would be beneficial to have this as well. Ideally any event in Gerrit should (potentially) be used to trigger a build.
Having this option (to trigger a build when a reviewer has been added) will allow us to first run a verification job prior to reviewing a patch. Only when the build is successful a review will be done.
Alternative would be to use the patchset-created event to trigger a build to do a verification. We already use this option for verification builds. Since we want to include additional tests during a pre-review build, we cannot rely on the verification builld. (thus there are 2 distinct builds, one verification build and one pre-review build).
Would be great if this could be added a an upcoming release. Many thanks in advance.
