I'm also seeing problems with updated packages not running the tests.
The News item on ci.debian.net only lists a handful of packages being
tested per day. With the churn through unstable after the release, I
would have expected this to be higher.

I've made a range of uploads for packages which have been running
autotests previously but two of these packages have not been tested
since the upload and have now migrated to stretch. One has a false
status that the tests fail, despite the version being tested only now
existing in stable.

http://ci.debian.net/packages/l/lava-dispatcher/unstable/amd64/

This package is marked as failing despite not testing the version which
was uploaded on 8th May and which migrated into stretch on 14th May.

http://ci.debian.net/packages/l/lava-tool/unstable/amd64/

Should be testing 0.12-1

Yet some other packages uploaded at the same time have been tested.
 
http://ci.debian.net/packages/l/lava-coordinator/unstable/amd64/

0.1.6-2 was tested on 7th May.

http://ci.debian.net/packages/d/django-restricted-resource/unstable/amd64/
(9th May)

http://ci.debian.net/packages/d/django-testscenarios/unstable/amd64/
(9th May)

So some tests are being done, just not others.

It seems like these triggers are not quite functioning as described.

It used to run tests for these packages quite regularly but something
does seem to be wrong at some level.
