QA (public) » openQA Project (public)

Observation¶

https://openqa.suse.de/tests/4535890#step/rsync_client/10 shows how a test failed with "# Test died: mydie at /usr/lib/os-autoinst/lockapi.pm line 41." which is not that helpful. https://github.com/os-autoinst/os-autoinst/blob/master/lockapi.pm#L41 says bmwqemu::mydie "$type '$name': lock owner already finished" if $res == 410; but the message does not show up in openQA. The log has:

[2020-08-07T02:54:22.190 UTC] [debug] <<< bmwqemu::mydie(cause_of_death="barrier 'rsync_setup': lock owner already finished")
[2020-08-07T02:54:22.324 UTC] [info] ::: basetest::runtest: # Test died: mydie at /usr/lib/os-autoinst/lockapi.pm line 41.

Acceptance criteria¶

• AC1: The cause of death is also shown on the level of openQA job module details, e.g. the thumbnail popup

Suggestions¶

• Research why bmwqemu::mydie is used and not just die which should be properly handled already
• Change implementation to forward the cause_of_death as in case of other failed checks (try first with simple die)
