Description
Since we're deprioritizing screen-based testing, something that has bothered me for quite a while is that we often have test modules that are console-only (i.e no ncurses) and could be better handled with a serial console, but they use root console or others. So we'd like to prevent test developers from creating new tests, which such bad practice
In reality what we want to achieve is to Prevent openQA from relying on VNC, as assert_screen needs a tty (either console or x11/wayland)
Particularly relevant for tests with consolebasetest in their parent hierarchy.
Acceptance criteria:¶
- The RFC request was added to CONTRIBUTING.md with the new rule.
- Pull Request is merged
- A format is considered to allow or skip the rule check purposefully
