[Backport release-1.35] Tune OS test timeouts for e2e runs#7808
Merged
Conversation
This mostly applies to full conformance test runs that are called from the release workflow. In order to obtain the "Certified Kubernetes" badge, these cannot be run in parallel. They currently take around two hours to complete, close to the Ginkgo test timeout. Funnily enough, the 64-bit ARM VMs are slightly faster than the 64-bit x86_64 VMs, resulting in mostly successful arm64 runs and very unreliable amd64 runs. Moreover, Ginkgo/sonobuoy simply report any overall test timeouts as failures of the pending tests, with no indication that the tests did not even complete. This makes it very difficult to realize that this is a timeout issue rather than a flaky test. For an all-serial workflow step, use the following timeouts: * three hours for Ginkgo, * three and a half hours for Sonobuoy * and four hours for the workflow step. When the serial step follows a parallel step, use tighter timeouts because only the remaining serial tests should run: * thirty minutes for Ginkgo, * forty-five minutes for Sonobuoy, * and one hur for the workflow step.
