TravisCI: How to allow failures for environment variable

Question

How to allow failures for builds having specific environment variable value?

For example:

.travis.yml:

env:   - TEST_GROUP=Smoke   - TEST_GROUP=other # How to allow failures for this variable? matrix:   allow_failures:     - TEST_GROUP=other # This does not work 

Answer 1

You need to explicitly reference env in the allow_failures section:

matrix:   allow_failures:     - env: TEST_GROUP=other
