action #176346

Updated by okurz 29 days ago

## Motivation 
 See #175060 . In the openQA full-stack test t/full-stack.t we observed that we have sometimes test failures which seem to be related to mistyping the command `sudo poweroff` in the os-autoinst test but not super clear feedback in circleCI about that. 

 ## Goals 
 * **G1:** We know how to identify test failures potentially related to high load mistyping 
 * **G2:** The log is not cluttered with too much information 

 ## Suggestions 
 * Can we detect that "typing" was used, and nothing was typed? 
     * Use send_key to send keys to confirm if anything was typed? 
 * Make a case of the SUT being under very high load visible in the test results 
 * Maybe this was based on high CPU? Or high memory? Or unresponsive I/O? 
 * Use `stress` command to simulate high load on local setup
