Per <https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=200400#c8>: "For bug #199960 I have pressed the 'Rebuild' button on the corresponding build (https://ews-build.webkit.org/#/builders/7/builds/5822), so mac-wk2 queue should process it now." I guess the Rebuild button was pressed to get me the layout test results that I had been waiting for for 7 days, but it also caused a re-test of the API tests (which were not needed). Moreover, now I cannot access the old API test results (which were completed) and the bubble links to <https://ews-build.webkit.org/#/builders/3/builds/5636>. So, now I have to wait for API test results when I only wanted layout test results. Is there any way we can expose a link to any available results? Either a new link and UI to access this link or maybe just have the status bubbles link to the old results?

In this particular case, the API tester for Mac succeeded but the layout tester got stuck for 7 days.
If it had been the opposite scenario, the API tester was stuck and the layout tester completed then this bug would be ***more*** detrimental to me because layout tests generally take longer to run than API tests so I would have to wait longer to get back into my workflow.

We will be showing history of all the runs and the corresponding links on a separate status page which would open on clicking the status-bubbles. Tracked in Bug 197522.
When the builder was rebuilding, the api-test status-bubbles would have been showing the previous results. As soon as api-tests started running, status-bubble would have start showing the latest ongoing build info. Status-bubble hover-over messages just show latest info. Historical information would be shown on the status page we plan to develop.
The test wasn't actually stuck for 7 days, it was executed on old EWS. Two days back, we moved that queue from old EWS to new EWS.
In terms of efficiency, this should be one-off case, as we had to press rebuild on the builder, as the mac-wk2 queue came into existence after the patch. Going forward, we could press rebuild on the tester queue (or the specific queue) on which we need a re-build.
