Motivation¶

To have a complete system test of "start_gui_program" in os-autoinst/wheel-launcher we need to boot a system where we can actually start a gui program. How about putting that functionality into another wheel which we can depend on (nested wheels?)

Acceptance criteria¶

• AC1: os-autoinst/os-autoinst-wheel-launcher has a system test using another wheel booting a system

Suggestions¶

• Extract wait_boot from os-autoinst-distri-opensuse which is called like in https://github.com/os-autoinst/os-autoinst-distri-opensuse/blob/master/tests/boot/boot_to_desktop.pm#L52 into a wheel which can be used from other wheels
• The basic repository has already been created, checkout https://github.com/os-autoinst/os-autoinst-wheel-boot
• Use the boot wheel in the launcher wheel to have a complete system test, like "boot the system into a GUI session, then call 'start_gui_program' and see that it behaves"
• Run test in GitHub action
• Any re-use of tests is not expected to use the example needle(s) from the wheel
• Try out running the same test within an openQA job to see if it works correctly
