open[qe-core] Adapt first_boot and boot to desktop - DESKTOP=gnome System's ram must be at least 4GB
0%
Description
Observation¶
To avoid bugs like https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1218923 where a test configuration error creates a problem, it is better to diagnose during first_boot and boot_to_desktop
In general, we should be able to read on either module if the system's RAM is under < 4GB and DESKTOP=gnome or DESKTOP=minimal and let the reviewers know of the situation.
If it's first_boot we need to add the fatal flag; if it's boot_to_desktop, soft_fail explaining the reason, or adding a record_info (fail), so it clearly shows that it is something off/wrong, without affecting the overall result of the test suite.
Take into account the possibility of overriding hardware requirements (https://documentation.suse.com/sles/15-SP5/single-html/SLES-deployment/#sec-x86-requirements)
Acceptance Criteria¶
- Ensure Machine type ppc64le-2g also has a 4g counterpart
- The
first_bootmodule fails if memory requirements are not met unless explicitly asked (i.e. via variable) - The
boot_to_desktopmodule records an error or soft fails if memory requirements aren't met
openQA test in scenario sle-15-SP5-Online-QR-SAP-ppc64le-create_hdd_sles4sap_gnome@ppc64le-2g fails in
first_boot
Test suite description¶
The base test suite is used for job templates defined in YAML documents. It has no settings of its own.
Reproducible¶
Fails since (at least) Build 134.1 (current job)
Expected result¶
Last good: 134.1 (or more recent)
Further details¶
Always latest result in this scenario: latest
