Metadata

  • Branch: test-infra/ci-pipeline-design-conditional-job-execution
  • Commit Message: chore(ci): implement conditional job execution to skip unchanged paths
  • Milestone: (backlog — see note below)
  • Parent Epic: #5407

Description

The current CI pipeline runs all jobs on every push and pull request. This is inefficient. We should implement conditional job execution to only run jobs when necessary.

Subtasks

  • Update the ci.yml file to only run the docs job when files in the docs/ directory have changed.
  • Update the ci.yml file to only run the helm job when files in the k8s/ directory have changed.
  • Update the ci.yml file to only run the docker job when the Dockerfile or Dockerfile.server have changed.

Definition of Done

  • The CI pipeline uses conditional job execution to only run jobs when necessary.
  • The overall pipeline execution time is reduced.
  • All nox stages pass.
  • Coverage >= 97%.

Backlog note: This issue was discovered during autonomous operation
on milestone v3.5.0. It does not block milestone completion and has been
placed in the backlog for human review and future milestone assignment.
