Description
Observation¶
Apparently the worker tests in openQA-in-openQA are broken:
# Test died: no candidate needle with tag(s) 'boot-menu, openqa-desktop' matched
https://openqa.opensuse.org/tests/3193538#step/worker/3
Acceptance criteria¶
- AC1: openQA-in-openQA worker module passes consistently
- AC2: The test is less dependent on GNOME design changes
Suggestions¶
- Look into providing the missing needle
- Adapt the test case accordingly
- Don't use a GNOME desktop which frequently undergoes design changes e.g. gmrun, icewm, openbox

The jobs passed again with https://github.com/os-autoinst/os-autoinst-needles-openQA/commit/499a3292bf9a2b48a4da9fa2d219d61f5fe00770 applied but IMHO we can improve because we don't want to care about how gnome looks in an openQA test. We could switch to icewm or something which is much less likely to change in behavior and look than gnome.
I triggered a job based on the HDD image created by https://openqa.opensuse.org/tests/latest?arch=x86_64&distri=opensuse&flavor=NET&machine=64bit&test=create_hdd_minimalx&version=Tumbleweed with
openqa-clone-job --within-instance https://openqa.opensuse.org/tests/3193538 --skip-chained-deps BUILD= _GROUP=0 TEST+=okurz-try_minimalx_base_image HDD_1=opensuse-Tumbleweed-x86_64-20230325-minimalx@64bit.qcow2
this fails in
https://openqa.opensuse.org/tests/3194088#step/boot/4 showing that the image boots icewm (actually quite fast) and then expects a login in contrast to the gnome image which has "auto-login". I created a new needle "openqa-desktop-minimalx-login-20230327" as our function "wait_for_desktop" supports handling the login.
There is one point where we apply gnome-specifics so we need to change code for that as well: https://github.com/os-autoinst/os-autoinst-distri-openQA/pull/112

new gnome/ new needles needed ?
Yes, that was the case. That is what mkittler did yesterday. I am trying to use icewm as base

First complication ahead, since https://github.com/os-autoinst/os-autoinst-distri-openQA/pull/147 we need to use wicked which is unfortunately only in the Gnome image (as the default is afaik NM). I will ignore it for now and will continue with my initial experiments, but we will definitely need to discuss further steps.

As a first step, I tried to enhance our support to also allow NetworkManager in multi-machine setup script: https://github.com/os-autoinst/os-autoinst/pull/2407 This will allow us to use other pre-made HDDs with different desktops, where wicked is not installed by default.

I created some minor updates inspired by what was already done by okurz and put it all together. The main PR (which links to other needed work) is at https://github.com/os-autoinst/os-autoinst-distri-openQA/pull/154. Feedback welcomed.

I added a simple workaround as part of https://github.com/os-autoinst/os-autoinst-distri-openQA/pull/156; now it should be safe and possible to switch the desktop environment if we want.
