coordination #31426

Updated by SLindoMansilla about 6 years ago

## 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)): 
   * 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 ([poo#32080](https://progress.opensuse.org/issues/32080)): 
   * 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 first column it and "netstat" or its equivalent like "ss" in SLE15 top should appear, middle column (memory details) does nothing on click and by clicking on third column a "top" window should appear. 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
