Automated [] rollback of [].

*** Reason for rollback ***

This new default behavior is undesirable in many situations.

*** Original change description ***

Change the default value for test_output to "errors".

This might be controversial, but I have many times seen users run their tests, and then select the failure log path in their terminal and then cat the log to their screen so they can search for their errors.  Every time, I've pointed out, "you can add test_output=errors to your .blazerc," they've thought it was great.  Sometimes they say, "Why isn't that just the default?"

Bazel

{Fast, Correct} - Choose two

Bazel is a build tool that builds code quickly and reliably. It is used to build the majority of Google‘s software, and thus it has been designed to handle build problems present in Google’s development environment, including:

  • A massive, shared code repository, in which all software is built from source. Bazel has been built for speed, using both caching and parallelism to achieve this. Bazel is critical to Google's ability to continue to scale its software development practices as the company grows.

  • A emphasis on automated testing and releases. Bazel has been built for correctness and reproducibility, meaning that a build performed on a continuous build machine or in a release pipeline will generate bitwise-identical outputs to those generated on a developer's machine.

  • Language and platform diversity. Bazel's architecture is general enough to support many different programming languages within Google, and can be used to build both client and server software targeting multiple architectures from the same underlying codebase.
