## Motivation 

 Our new SLE12_SP3 image for RPi3 is using xdm together with icewm window manger.  

 I found that icewm is part of otherDE tests but it is not full WM test, see https://openqa.opensuse.org/tests/601354 

 It would be nice if we can test icewm at least on x86_64 and check if it behaves correctly according to default icewm configuration. 

 ## Acceptance criteria 
 * **AC1:** openSUSE and SLE tests covering icewm exercise more test steps from what we have on e.g. gnome 
 * **AC2:** All sub-tasks are resolved. 

 ## Tasks 

 We have in mind something like this: 

 * Basic desktop behavior (See subtask [poo#32074](https://progress.opensuse.org/issues/32074)): behavior: 
   * check suse wallpaper 
   * walk through "start" menu - try Help and wait for html help 
   * change theme 
   * check decorations of windows 
   * execute xterm and then click on Show deskop icon - it should minimize all windows, if you click again the windows should appear again 
 * Check basic widget behavior 
   * check if clock "widget" is working correctly - click and xclock should appear 
   * check if mail "widget" is working correctly - click and some email client should appear 
   * check if system-monitor "widget" is working - click on it and top should appear 
 * Boot/Start 
   * logout and login again over xdm 
   * shutdown and reboot 

 ## Further details 

 Keep in mind that icewm has a "desktop runner" equivalence, see https://github.com/os-autoinst/os-autoinst-distri-opensuse/pull/4415/files
