Bug #12088
Test suite fails for feature/stretch on Jenkins due to lack of space in /tmp/TailsToaster
100%
Description
https://jenkins.tails.boum.org/view/RM/job/test_Tails_ISO_feature-stretch/74/consoleFull says:
18:29:48 Feature: Icedove email client
18:29:48 As a Tails user
18:29:48 I may want to use an email client

18:29:48 Background: # features/icedove.feature:7
18:30:37 Given I have started Tails from DVD and logged in and the network is connected # features/step_definitions/snapshots.rb:197
18:30:37 Call to virDomainSaveFlags failed: operation failed: domain save job: unexpectedly failed (Libvirt::Error)

Around that time, thanks to home-made monitoring:
$ df $df_options

tmpfs tmpfs 13G 13G 1017M 93% /tmp/TailsToaster

So, for some reason, running the test suite on current feature/stretch requires more disk space (and probably more RAM).
I’ll investigate why (it might be caused by the changes I did for Feature #12055).

The failure is caused by lacking disk space to save snapshots.
#3 Updated by intrigeri 2016-12-27 11:47:00
Given the isotesters 1 more GB of RAM and tmpfs, we’ll see.

It seems the memory bump fixed the “domain save job” operation:

There’s still another Libvirt::Error
issues remaining but that is for Bug #12067 AFAICT so I think this ticket can be closed.
