Out of curiosity: why was it failing sometimes on Travis and not locally?
And how did you discover this? From the program level logs?
Another thing that came to my mind: in the long run, do we need a more
complex way of configuring the retry policy? In my understanding, the number of
retries is fixed. I can see an issue for very long run programs, which fail
once in a while, but operate normally most of the time -- then at some point
they will fail because of the fixed number of retries.
