There is also a periodic-qa queue that works in largely the same manner except
that it reports to the openstack-qa ML, which is dead and just hasn't been
removed only so we'll have a place to report the periodic job results to. But,
if you don't want to use any of these I don't think there is anything stopping
you from creating a new periodic-neutron queue or something like that.

Unfortunately, the periodic jobs only have the option of reporting to a ML and
that's the only way to really find results from them. (you can see where this is
configured in zuul's layout.yaml [2]) It's far from ideal because it basically
means no one ever looks at the results and there's no easy way to track it over
time. This problem was actually one of the primary motivations we had for
starting openstack-health which, you can access here:

http://status.openstack.org/openstack-health/#/

There are probably some thing still things missing from the dashboard (like
listing links to recent runs on a job's page) so we haven't fully replaced the
ML result reporting yet. But, that's one of the eventual goal and we're getting
there slowly. If you'd like to help with this effort so we have a good solution
for tracking periodic jobs the code for the project is here:

http://git.openstack.org/cgit/openstack/openstack-health/

and we're tracking work items on:
