Description

Observation

https://openqa.opensuse.org/tests/2798002#step/start_test/1 shows an openqa-cli call combined with pipes to jq. There is an error message (in red) "Connect timeout" but the openQA test does not immediately stop but then fails later

Acceptance criteria

  • AC1: Test fails immediately as soon as unrecoverable error is encountered, including within bash pipe'd commands
  • AC2: Test does not fail anymore on intermittent connect timeouts

Suggestions

  • Investigate why o3 was seemingly not available during the time of test execution
  • Maybe we need better retry capabilities within openqa-cli?
  • Consider setting -o pipefail in the bash session

The PR has been merged. There has only been one failure since then but it had failed in a different module. I suppose we can resolve the PR nevertheless as I also did some local testing (see PR comment).
