LFX 2023 Term 3: Fix bugs for jobflow to enhance its stability

[Thor-wl]

As a built-in orchestration engine for Volcano, jobflow acts as an improtant role for users and it's still new-born. Many issues related to its stability are reported recently. Please help make full test for jobflow on the classical scenarios and reslove bugs reported in issues. The bugs which can be listed as examples are as follows:

• volcano-controller failed to create jobs with jobflow
• Creating jobs through JobFlow and JobTemplate was unsuccessful
• JobFlow UT probabilistic failure

hey @Thor-wl , I'm trying to understand each issue deeply. as far as i could understand #2987 is occuring due to the handleJobFlow function which is located at volcano/pkg/controllers/jobflow . As this function is responsible for executing actions related to the jobflow based on the FlowRequest received from the queue. I would like to dive deeper into this issue under this LFX Fall.
Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Hey @Thor-wl

I'm really excited about the potential of JobFlow in the Volcano project and I'm eager to contribute towards resolving the reported stability issues. The challenges surrounding job creation through JobFlow and JobTemplate, as well as the probabilistic failures in the JobFlow UT, have caught my attention.

I'm keen on joining the LFX Mentorship Program to actively work on these problems and collaborate with the community. Could you please add me to the Slack channel where discussions about these JobFlow issues are happening? I'm looking forward to engaging with the team and making a positive impact.

Hey @Thor-wl I am expressing my interest to complete this project. This project incites my curiosity as it would help me gain an in-depth knowledge about orchestration as a whole ,its implementation and architecture. Such knowledge would help me to become an Active contributor in Volcano :)

@deep-poharkar @srikanth-iyengar @kanha-gupta Thanks for your passion! Really glad to see your effort to Volcano. Let's go across Volcano and JobFlow project first and then try to demonstrate your thoughts about the project in the resume. I'll response you ASAP.
@wangyang0616 @william-wang Can you help add them into the slack channel? Thanks very much.
