Observation¶

Running 99-full-stack.t when it fails I observe an error like the following:

#   Failed test 'Result in testresults/result-reload_needles.json is ok'
#   at 99-full-stack.t line 82.
#          got: 'fail'
#     expected: 'ok'
Bailout called.  Further testing stopped:  testresults/result-reload_needles.json failed
cannot remove path when cwd is /tmp/99-full-stack.t-KMSs/pool for /tmp/99-full-stack.t-KMSs:  at /usr/lib/perl5/5.26.1/File/Temp.pm line 1616.

so the temporary directory can not be removed in this case

Acceptance criteria¶

• AC1: No error about failing to remove the temporary directory if the test fails
• AC2: No error about failing to remove the temporary directory if no tests fail
• AC3: The temporary directory is removed after the test exits regardless of the result (fail or pass)

Suggestions¶

• Reproduce the failure locally, e.g. with an artificial error within t/99-full-stack.t in os-autoinst
• Compare how we handle the temporary directory within other test modules within os-autoinst as well as openQA
• Apply a fix and where necessary enhance all other uses of the temp dir in both os-autoinst and openQA
