Hi Chingkai,

As I understand, Remote installation is in Desktop's acceptance test scope, so can we look into more details :-)
Is there a PR/concrete idea how we can make it better? e.g. What's the preferred qcow2/FLAVOR here.

Thanks and please correct if I misunderstood anything.

I found that

  • The FLAVOR of this job is: Desktop-MINI-ISO but
  • the qcow2 image which is defined in testsuit is: HDD_1=sle-12-SP1-Server-DVD-x86_64-gnome.qcow2

I am not sure if this caused the misunderstanding of wait_boot, I will look into this issue on my openQA environment.

This is not a problem.

remote_vnc_controller_sled is the test for a multi-machine job. VNC installations need two machines, the system under test (which is what you are installing on) and the system conducting the test, running the VNC client and doing the installation.

remote_vnc_controller_sled is the system conducting the test, for which we use SLE-12-SP1-Server because it's what we use for doing the test on SLES and the whole point of this test appearing quickly was because we were given the responsibility to look into SLED Beta 1 at very short notice and it was quicker to automate it in openQA than teach someone how to do VNC installations

I'll look into the issue with the test run, as I created it and this initial hiccup is probably something I can fix, but I would appreciate it if someone with more SLED expertise helps as I suspect we'll need it next :)

I am not sure if this caused the misunderstanding of wait_boot, I will look into this issue on my openQA environment.

Fixed it with a fresh needle - sorry I couldn't get the needle done before I left last night but was a long day with this and everything else we had to look at for Beta 1

Test is now running, should give good results regarding VNC installations for Beta 1 and in the future

Regards

PS. I also added an LVM test to the SLED job groups, as this is also in scope of validation testing and was easy to add to openQA

Some thing maybe irrelevant - from the video, the grub2 was there and gdm was booted. So it gave me a feeling openQA didn't catch the grub screenshot in time?

Gee... brilliant, thank you Richard! :-)
