  • Subject changed from [opensuse][functional][u] cleanup_before_shutdown fails to open desktop runner - when we run after reboot we should let the desktop runner settle down, see the "desktop_runner" module to [opensuse][functional][u] cleanup_before_shutdown fails to switch to root console

Not very convincing I must admit and also not proper markdown style. The ACs you stated are the implicit ones we have for all "Bugs in existing tests" so they are not needed. However it makes sense to have more specific expectations. What exactly do we expect from the module "cleanup_before_shutdown" is the question. I see you have changed the subject line, maybe you are right here.

We can exclude worker issues here since we had the problem on multiple machines

We could softfail in console activation and retry, but do we really want to?

@okurz @mgriessmeier not sure how to continue here, just adding another try seems counter intuitive and I fail to find a reason for this behaviour

Could you please try to attend #42173#note-7 first?

Sorry I have no clue why Markdown lists are not working here, according to https://github.com/adam-p/markdown-here/wiki/Markdown-Cheatsheet it should be correct

You have two possibilities, either use titles instead of just bold print for the headers or add a blank line after the bold lines

yes, you have added ACs but as in #42173#note-7 : The ACs you stated are the implicit ones we have for all "Bugs in existing tests" so they are not needed. However it makes sense to have more specific expectations. What exactly do we expect from the module "cleanup_before_shutdown" is the question.

Seems I was not clear with that. Anyway, I checked the latest results in the scenario mentioned in #42173#note-3 and the scenarios seem to be pretty stable, no recent failures in cleanup_before_shutdown for some time. I guess makes no sense to continue here.
