Bazel always exits 0

[macrae...@gmail.com]

I'm not sure if this is due to me recently upgrading or if this has just been true forever, but right now on test or build failures my bazel is returning 0. This makes it so that CI is not doing it's job. Is this a bug? Is there a flag I should be passing? I'm very surprised by this.

That is weird - according to bazel's docs, it should be exiting with 3 if any tests failed, not 0: https://docs.bazel.build/versions/master/user-manual.html#what-exit-code-will-i-get

Do you have a wrapper script or helper function around the bazel CLI entrypoint, by any chance? 

[Brian Silverman]

One place to look is tools/bazel. If you have an executable file there, the /usr/bin/bazel file installed for most of the packages will run that instead of the actual bazel binary.
