Description

Observation

Multiple job modules in openQA in openQA tests are failing, for instance https://openqa.opensuse.org/tests/5040223:

# Test died: command 'retry -s 5 -r 3 -- sh -c 'test -f /var/lib/openqa/share/tests/*/.git/config'' failed: the test distribution should be checked out by openQA automatically at /usr/lib/os-autoinst/autotest.pm line 418.

See latest job in this scenario.

Draft by @okurz to get back to the previous behavior: https://github.com/os-autoinst/openQA/pull/6421

Since we might still want to discuss it I disabled the tests for now.

I guess the actual revert is a separate PR: https://github.com/os-autoinst/openQA/pull/6426 and @mkittler said Jenkins pipelines will be re-enabled shortly

  • Priority changed from Urgent to High

https://github.com/os-autoinst/openQA/pull/6426 was merged so I enabled the Jenkins pipeline again. With that the urgent aspect of this issue has been resolved.

Unfortunately @okurz wasn't in the daily today so we had no chance to sync on the way forward. We should also avoid getting lost in discussions on GitHub so for now I'm not doing anything :-)

jenkins jobs are triggered and succeeding again: http://jenkins.qa.suse.de/job/monitor-openQA_in_openQA-TW/lastSuccessfulBuild/ linking to http://jenkins.qa.suse.de/job/monitor-openQA_in_openQA-TW/30871/ . https://openqa.opensuse.org/tests/5044940 is also green. To not break tests again working on #181889 I would like to block on that
