Description

Observation

openQA test in scenario opensuse-15.1-NET-x86_64-xfce@64bit-2G fails in
vlc
to press the 'ret' key after detecting the correctly typed launch string, the test wastes 30s waiting and then continues by retyping and succeeding.
The match_typed parameter was introduced with #25972 and we seem to use it correctly but simply because we do not match the needle the test wastes time and we do not realize

Acceptance criteria

  • AC1: No obvious time waste can occur without us noticing

Task

  • Remove the arguments target_match and match_typed

Suggestions

Because we do not actually rely on the needle with tag target_match_vlc the test passes but we waste time. Either we get rid of the match_typed behaviour again or we ensure that we match the target_match_vlc needle in the end before continuing and fail otherwise.

@SLindoMansilla I just saw the PR now. Unfortunately the suggestion in #47039#note-7 is not a good one. Both parameters have been added for a reason. It would be naive to assume that they are there for no reason and that whoever added them was not thinking clearly or something. Please read the "Suggestion" in the description again.
