openQA-in-openQA tests can get stuck with an inconsistent repository
0%
Description
Observation¶
After #167395 openQA-in-openQA tests use devel:openQA:testing which is a snapshot of devel:openQA created before triggering tests. Unfortunately this snapshot can be created at a bad time where the repository is inconsistent. At least that's how it looks like on https://openqa.opensuse.org/tests/4704845#step/openqa_worker/1 where the installation of openQA-worker fails with The to be installed openQA-worker-4.6.17… requires 'openqa-common = 4.6.17… … but this requirement cannot be provided. Then it suggests do downgrade to packages from openSUSE.
The tests retries the installation but because devel:openQA:testing is snapshotted after #167395 this is in vain now.
I checked the video and it looks like the test really only adds devel:openQA:testing (and not e.g. devel:openQA in addition). So I think an inconsistent snapshot of devel:openQA:testing is the most likely explanation.
Acceptance criteria¶
- AC1: Tests are only triggered from a consistent snapshot of
devel:openQA
