QA:Testcase SELinux Errors on Desktop clients
Release relevance
This Testcase applies the following versions of Rocky Linux: 8, 9
Associated release criterion
This test case is associated with the Release_Criteria#selinux-and-crash-notifications-desktop-only release criterion. If you are doing release validation testing, a failure of this test case may be a breach of that release criterion.
Description¶
Basically running a Workstation or Graphical Server install for a longer amount of time, while using it and then checking if there were any SELinux audit messages. There must be no SELinux denial logs in /var/log/audit/audit.log , nor crash notifications on boot, during installation, or during first login.
- ⬇️ - Low priority. It would be good to have this tested, but if it isn't or if it fails then it is inconsequential.
- ❗ - Important. It is best to have this tested, but if it isn't or if it fails then it won't block the release.
