Description

To prepare testing for the 2038 issue (See https://progress.opensuse.org/issues/124736) we need to explore options on how to setup a test environment, that runs in year 2038 or later.

We are not sure how this can be implemented in openQA. Perhaps a local timeshift is enough, maybe we need a NTP server on the host or a complete new infrastructure.
This ticket is about exploring possibilities to run tests, where the host system will be time-warped to 01.01.2038 (or later).

Acceptance criteria

  • Run a test run, where the system-under-test (SUT) is set to 2038 or later
  • Identify and exclude tests within this test run, that are broken. Check if this is relevant
