It is very good for that. However, the problem I have with reproducer
scripts is that they are tied to the CI output. If I am working on a patch,
the only way I know to get a reproducer is to submit the patch and then
wait for CI to finish and then run the script again myself.

It would be very useful if I there was a tool where I could run a specific
CI job, with a gerrit patch included (or even a local change would be more
amazing!). Perhaps even a reproducer script generator would do the job.
