Description

observation

https://openqa.suse.de/tests/384439/modules/grub_test/steps/1 fails, last good https://openqa.suse.de/tests/384158/modules/grub_test/steps/1

steps to reproduce

rerun "autoupgrade_sle12_sp1@64bit"

problem

looking at the logfile reveals:

17:59:57.3016 MATCH(autoyast-boot-grub2-20150923:1.00)
17:59:57.3120 MATCH(autoyast-boot-pxe-20150714:0.00)
17:59:57.4166 >>> assert_screen: found autoyast-boot-grub2-20150923, similarity 0.99 @ 138/64
18:00:01.3442 ||| finished autoyast_reboot autoyast at 2016-05-10 18:00:01 (14 s)
18:00:06.8040 ||| starting grub_test tests/installation/grub_test.pm at 2016-05-10 18:00:06
18:00:06.8047 Debug: /var/lib/openqa/share/tests/sle/tests/installation/grub_test.pm:17 called testapi::assert_screen
18:00:06.8049 <<< assert_screen(mustmatch='grub2', timeout=30)
…
18:00:38.2395 >>> assert_screen: match=grub2 timed out after 30

which leads to
H1. loading the next test takes too long to be working during the grub timeout so looking for the bootmenu already in the autoyast/autoyast_reboot.pm causes this error

suggestion

  • Don't wait for grub menu already in the autoyast/autoyast_reboot.pm
  • Find the cause for loading a test to take more than 5 seconds
