Description

Observation¶

openQA test in scenario microos-Tumbleweed-Kubic-DVD-x86_64-container-host@uefi fails in
bootloader_uefi

In many cases, bootloader_uefi fails today - sometimes reruns of the same test cures it, in others, it does not

e.g. https://openqa.opensuse.org/tests/2181612#next_previous - a rerun worked (same failure before)

Test suite description¶

Reproducible¶

Fails since (at least) Build 20220209 (current job)

Expected result¶

Last good: 20220207 (or more recent)

Further details¶

Always latest result in this scenario: latest

This sequence seems to be extreme racy:

     assert_screen([qw(bootloader-shim-import-prompt bootloader-grub2)], $bootloader_timeout); # line 89
…
             send_key 'up'; # line 123
             send_key_until_needlematch('inst-oninstallation', 'down', 10, 3); # line 124

seems the 'send-key_until_needlematch' happened to 'see the screen' before grub registered the 'up' keypress (so no down ever pressed), then the subsequent pressing of 'e' happens on the top menu item.
