Description

Observation

openQA test in scenario sle-12-SP5-Server-DVD-s390x-default@s390x-kvm-sle12 fails in
firefox

When this kind of tests fail, the test scenario is killed

Test suite description

Maintainer: okurz

The standard scenario where we mainly just follow installation suggestions without any adjustments.

Reproducible

Fails since (at least) Build 0109 or tests where only one application is being tested that would not affect further tests (i.e, firefox or nautilus are being open, and these don't affect the current test environment)

Expected result

Test scenario is able to finish by reverting to last good snapshot

Assigning to milestone 24 for the time being, but perhaps we could discuss this and bring it to an earlier milestone

so you are basically asking for "snapshot support on s390x-kvm", right? I do not see it as "Workable" as it is far from clear what to do here, also not really "Bugs in existing tests" as we also do not have a "last good" where we see that a snapshot is loaded, or did I miss something?

Doesn't mean we can't do that on other architectures like ppc64, x86 and aarch64, which is what? 75% of the arches? :).

General idea is: If we got far enough to boot a system, why don't we use that to revert to a state where tests can be ran further?.

tests where only one application is being tested that would not affect further tests (i.e, firefox or nautilus are being open, and these don't affect the current test environment)

I think this paragraph explains the whole rational for this ticket.

Sorry, I am confused now and do not what you expect from me and what you think is missing. We use snapshots to revert to on backends where supported or do you know of examples where we don't?

This ticket is not yet blocked, since it can be prepared for non-s390x architectures. See the relation to the ticket as blocker, rather than actually blocked.

I think this can be worked on, even if we treat s390x different while we implement the qemu backend for s390x.

I will reject this ticket for now, it depended on having snapshot support on s390 and powerVM, but that won't likely happen anytime soon.
