 # [Continuous integration](ci.yml)
 
+## Overview
+
 Before a pull request can be merged into the main branch, it must pass all automated tests for the repository.  This document describes the tests and how to run them locally.
 
 To run the equivalent of the full CI suite locally, simply execute `make presubmit`.  This should perform all of the steps below, including bringing up a local interoperability ecosystem and all local USS mocks necessary to conduct tests.  Therefore, `make presubmit` can (and should) be run starting without any pre-existing local infrastructure (interoperability ecosystem and/or USS mocks).
 
 The downside of `make presubmit` is that it takes a long time, and a lot of that time is spent bringing up and tearing down local infrastructure (interoperability ecosystem and USS mocks).  If your changes do not affect one or both of these things, you may save substantial time by bringing up an interoperability ecosystem once and leaving it up while developing, and possibly bringing up a set of USS mocks ([mock_uss](../../monitoring/mock_uss) instances) and leaving them up while developing (though obviously this will not work if developing changes that affect mock_uss).  See uss_qualifier tests section below.

 uss_qualifier [scenario documentation](../../monitoring/uss_qualifier/scenarios/README.md#documentation) is required and has strict requirements to ensure a strong, consistent, and correct interface between regulators and others concerned only with the concept of what scenarios are doing, and InterUSS contributors concerned with writing the actual code to perform the test.  This check validates many of these documentation requirements.
 
-### Shell lint (`make shell-lint`)
+#### Shell lint (`make shell-lint`)
 
 This repository contains a large number of shell scripts.  This check attempts to have these scripts follow best practices and avoid common pitfalls.

-### monitorlib tests (`make test` in monitoring/monitorlib)

 ### mock_uss tests (`make test` in monitoring/mock_uss)
 
 This check runs unit tests for mock_uss.

 ### prober tests (`make test` in monitoring/prober)
 
-[prober](../../monitoring/prober/README.md) is a legacy test suite dedicated to integration testing of DSS instances.  It is being migrated to test scenarios and suites in uss_qualifier, but in the mean time, it is still the standard way to validate DSS functionality.  It runs on the DSS provided as part of the local interoperability ecosystem.

+## Troubleshooting
+
+Whenever CI is run on GitHub, a large amount of documentation on that test run is generated.  Each of the checks is documented separately.  When CI is run upon merging a PR to the main branch, the list of checks is accessible by clicking on the green checkmark (or red x) near the top of [the repo homepage](https://github.com/interuss/monitoring):
+
+![Repo homepage checks location](../../assets/ci/checks_repo_homepage.png)
+
+When CI is run for a PR, the list of checks is visible near the bottom of the PR page.  If all checks passed, the list of checks must be opened by clicking "Show all checks".
+
+In either case, the details of a particular check can be viewed by clicking on the "Details" link to the right of the check name:
+
+![CI check details](../../assets/ci/check_details.png)
+
+This GitHub Actions job run page shows the console output from the job.  If there was an exception during the run, the error message of interest will usually be near the end of the last console output for the job.
+
+### uss_qualifier artifacts
+
+Some of the most useful outputs of uss_qualifier are the artifacts generated from the uss_qualifier test runs that are part of the CI.  When a PR is merged to the main branch of the repository, some of these artifacts are published to [https://interuss.github.io/monitoring](https://interuss.github.io/monitoring/).  These artifacts (and some additional ones) are available for every CI run.  To access them from a GitHub Actions job run page (see just above), first click "Summary" for the run:
+
+![CI Summary location](../../assets/ci/summary_location.png)
+
+Then, scroll down to the bottom of the page to see the list of GitHub Actions artifacts.  The GitHub Actions artifact that contains the uss_qualifier artifacts from all uss_qualifier test runs during the CI is the one labeled "monitoring-test-uss_qualifier-reports":
+
+![GitHub Actions artifacts](../../assets/ci/artifacts.png)
+
+Click on this artifact to download a zip file which can then be unzipped to reveal a uss_qualifier/output folder structure.  Each subfolder in uss_qualifier/output contains the output of a particular test run of uss_qualifier -- for instance, the `f3548` folder contains the output from running the [`configurations.dev.f3548_self_contained` configuration](../../monitoring/uss_qualifier/configurations/dev/f3548_self_contained.yaml).  The sequence view artifact is often particularly useful for debugging.
+
+### Automated testing logs
+
+The logs from all of the containers running during uss_qualifier automated tests (DSS instance, mock_uss instances, etc) can be found in the GitHub Actions artifact labeled "monitoring-test-uss_qualifier-logs"; see above for download instructions.

-If `make presubmit` succeeds on a developer's local machine, the GitHub CI actions should succeed as well.  [A known issue](https://github.com/interuss/monitoring/issues/28) frequently causes the "uss_qualifier tests" check to fail.  If the failed check indicates a query response code of 999 (this is the code InterUSS indicates when no response is received), this is very likely the problem.  A committer can rerun the CI check and it is likely to succeed on the second try with no changes.
