Run it several times on o.s.d. but can't reproduced. I think it should be worker performance issue which cause the xterm not be lauched in time.

Reject it.

Hi leli, sorry for reopening the ticket. I just want to ensure that we can improve our overall system reliability. IMHO "worker performance" should not be a reason to accept the current state as is. I see the following options. Either you investigate further in the direction of "worker performance" and see if this is something tangible which in the end would also demand a fix. Or maybe the test actually can be made more stable. Regarding the latter just yesterday I realized that the test module "keymap_or_locale" within the x11 tests should only be triggered way later after we ensured that e.g. xterm can be started. See #46532.
So could you please take a look into your hypothesis of "worker performance" or propose changes to the test code? If you think I am wrong feel free to close the ticket again accordingly. I hope for your understanding.

Hi Oliver, I agree you opinion, we should to make the test more stable. While I have checked migration job group, there is only one job with this issue, re-run several times and can't reproduce. In fact, there is a default policy in our team, if a job fail and can't reproduce by re-run, we won't file a ticket. Anyway, currently I just suggest to reject it and keep an eye on this issue. WDYT?

Yes, of course. Your policy makes sense. I just wanted to clarify. However, we still have #46532 to improve what we already know about keymap_or_locale
. Setting to original state.
