Hi,
Testing Farm release 2025-01.6
<https://docs.testing-farm.io/Testing%20Farm/0.1/releases/2025-01.6.html>
was deployed on 2025-04-30.
*🚀 Upgrades*
tmt <https://tmt.readthedocs.org> was updated to 1.47
<https://tmt.readthedocs.io/en/stable/releases.html#tmt-1-47-0>.
This update introduces a native package installation method for Image Mode,
where tmt creates derived images for each prepare step based on the booted
image, and reboots the system into the new configuration after each prepare
step. This should gradually improve installation issues of test
dependencies in Image Mode.
*🐞 Bugfixes*
Fix an issue in archiving causing unnecessary archivation of the same
artifacts after testing, significantly prolonging the archivation time and
delaying the requests from reaching the `complete` state. (TFT-3299
<https://issues.redhat.com/browse/TFT-3299>).
Improve memory usage by limiting the output of tests in `results-junit-xml`
to 10MiB. For very large requests, this issue was impacting the stability
of Testing Farm, causing the worker nodes to go OOM, which affected the
stability of other jobs that got stuck in the `running` state. (TFT-3175
<https://issues.redhat.com/browse/TFT-3175>)
Mitigate an issue during request cancellation that caused provisioned
resources to not be cleaned up properly. (TFT-3300
<https://issues.redhat.com/browse/TFT-3300>)
The pipeline timeout is now correctly honored by our provisioner, making it
possible to wait for scarce resources for days. Previously, provisioning
could fail earlier than the pipeline timeout setting. (TFT-3042
<https://issues.redhat.com/browse/TFT-3042>)
