QA » openQA Project

Observation¶

When trying to use openqa-clone-custom-git-refspec with NEEDLES_GIT_REFSPEC, openqa is unable to use the needle's link. In the details of the failed job, in the spot where it mentions the problem, it includes that link inside quotes as information. However, clicking on the link to open it includes the trailing quote in the address, leading to a 404 response (which can be fixed by manually removing the trailing quote in the address bar).

An example of this can be observed here. Near the bottom of the page, there are 3 occurrences of the link 'https://gitlab.suse.de/VANASTASIADIS/os-autoinst-needles-sles/tree/imagemagick_needles'. All three lead to a 404 page, but removing the trailing quote leads to the correct page.

Steps to reproduce¶

• Run openqa-clone-custom-git-refspec <valid pr link> <valid job-to-clone link> MAX_JOB_TIME=7593869 NEEDLES_GIT_REFSPEC=<valid needle branch link> _GROUP=0 _SKIP_POST_FAIL_HOOKS=1
• Go to the resulting openqa link and wait until the job fails
• Go near the bottom of the screen and click on the needle link

Problem¶

It seems to be a formatting problem, and it's probably not affecting the actual use of the link in the code, as the opening quote exists too and is not part of the link. It should however be ensured that this is the case.

Suggestion¶

• ensure it is a pure formatting bug
• locate corresponding code
• fix it so trailing quotes are not part of the link
