[functional][u] post_fail_hook matches on "text_login_root" before actual tty switch and therefore never logs in

Description

Observation

openQA test in scenario opensuse-Tumbleweed-NET-ppc64-minimalx@ppc64 fails in
zypper_up
executing the post_fail_hook trying to match on "tt5-selected" - which should have been the right needle in this case - as well as "text_logged_in_root" which unfortunately matches but should not.

Reproducible

Fails since (at least) Build 20180427

Expected result

Last good: 20180425 (or more recent)

The post_fail_hook should be able to match on tty5-selected and log into that terminal

Suggestions

I assume this can only be a problem when executing tests in console which would fail very early or do not produce much output so that the initial prompt is still visible
We could clear the console before executing a test module after logging on. Or we wait a forced sleep time after executing the console switch so that at least the original should go away even though this also sounds not necessarily save enough.

Further details

Always latest result in this scenario: latest

https://openqa.opensuse.org/tests/1092034#next_previous doesn't show problem with pos_fail_hook for failed test module yast2_lan for example.

Actions #15

Updated by okurz about 5 years ago

of course not, because the tests do not fail. Please read the description carefully about the word "post_fail_hook". The problem was that if the tests fail – which you can simulate by putting in artificial failures – the post_fail_hook could not do anything useful.

delete the old text-logged-in-root and it looks much better by matching text-logged-in-root-20170627 which covers bigger areas and prevent the issue with text-logged-in-root-20151205:

since the needle PR got merged and there is no issue atm with zypper_up on o3 for quite long time and if it needs to start post_fail_hook for failure, then it is covered now by my needle PR. So set is as resolved for now.
