<p>Does not quite work yet. It appears that a failing in one node
v0.11.x version did not prevent node v0.10.x from building (yay)
but did prevent the other node v0.11.x build from running. This is
a problem because all node v0.11.x build are know to fail, but not
till the very end due to <a href=
"https://github.com/aws/aws-sdk-js/issues/303">this aws-sdk bug</a>
and before that failure I'm posting build artifacts that are
important to work around the aws-sdk bug.</p>
<p>Here is the build: <a href=

default "fail fast" strategy in build matrix where first failed job
immediately fails the entire build with running/queued jobs. You
need "run all" behavior where all jobs run no matter what and the
build is considered failed if at least on job has failed.
Correct?</p></div>Feodor Fitsnertag:help.appveyor.com,2012-11-13:Comment/334850852014-06-24T03:24:17Z2014-06-24T03:24:17ZAllow failures behavior is problematic<div><p>Yes, that's exactly what I'm looking for.</p></div>danetag:help.appveyor.com,2012-11-13:Comment/334850852014-06-24T03:34:21Z2014-06-24T03:34:21ZAllow failures behavior is problematic<div><p>I see.

<p>Have you had a chance to fix this? It is still feeling quite
problematic. Most recently I've seen this type of error (<a href=
"http://help.appveyor.com/discussions/problems/539-cloning-gyp-fails">http://help.appveyor.com/discussions/problems/539-cloning-gyp-fails</a>)
randomly and that cancels all the other builds all of a sudden.
Ideally I would only need to restart the one build that fails
randomly due to a network problem.</p>
<p>Thanks, Dane</p></div>danetag:help.appveyor.com,2012-11-13:Comment/334850852014-07-15T20:39:20Z2014-07-15T20:39:20ZAllow failures behavior is problematic<div><p>Will try delivering that this week, sorry for the delay.</p></div>Feodor Fitsnertag:help.appveyor.com,2012-11-13:Comment/334850852014-07-15T20:55:36Z2014-07-15T20:55:36ZAllow failures behavior is problematic<div><p>Okay, thank you for the update!</p>

<p>A new update with <code>fast_finish</code> feature (sorry for
borrowing the name from Travis) has been just deployed. Now, unlike
it was done before, all build jobs run to the end no matter what.
To make a build fail immediately once one of the jobs fails add to
<code>appveyor.yml</code>:</p>
<pre>
<code>matrix:
fast_finish: true</code>
</pre>
<p>Sample output:</p>
<ul>
<li>Default mode (all jobs run, build is red): <a href=
"https://ci.appveyor.com/project/appvyr/grunt/build/1">https://ci.appveyor.com/project/appvyr/grunt/build/1</a></li>
<li>Fast finish (last job fails build, build is red): <a href=
"https://ci.appveyor.com/project/appvyr/grunt/build/2">https://ci.appveyor.com/project/appvyr/grunt/build/2</a></li>
<li>Allow failures for the last job (build is green): <a href=
"https://ci.appveyor.com/project/appvyr/grunt/build/3">https://ci.appveyor.com/project/appvyr/grunt/build/3</a></li>
</ul></div>Feodor Fitsner
