Flaky tests — those that fail intermittently — are a major productivity drain as test suites grow. The key insight is that using a merge queue guarantees every commit on main passes tests, which means any failure on main is definitionally a flake. Collecting these failures into a single list allows teams to prioritize and fix the most impactful sources of instability rather than playing whack-a-mole on individual PRs.
