+## Seeing the failure reason for jobs
+
+> [Introduced][ce-5742] in GitLab 10.7.
+
+When a pipeline fails or is allowed to fail, there are several places where you
+can quickly check the reason it failed:
+
+- **In the pipeline graph** present on the pipeline detail view.
+- **In the pipeline widgets** present in the merge requests and commit pages.
+- **In the job views** present in the global and detailed views of a job.
+
+In any case, if you hover over the failed job you can see the reason it failed.
