Opentelemetry and Your Tests
summary
Hook test pipelines into OpenTelemetry so CI test runs become searchable traces and metrics rather than buried XML files. The workflow parses JUnit XML to OpenTelemetry traces, attaches git context attached to spans (author, PR, files changed, lines added), and ships pass/skip/fail counts and per-test spans to backends like Jaeger or Elastic. Implementations include a Jenkins OpenTelemetry publisher, a Go CLI for any CI, pytest/maven/ansible plugins, and a demo using an OT Collector + Jaeger.
