What type of PR is this?
/kind cleanup

What does this PR do / why we need it:

  • Add admitted ingress check for openshift-gitops Route when we are logging in to Argo CD
  • Fixed cases where we were calling k8sClient.Update (prone to race conditions) and replaced it with fixture.Update
  • For '1-120-must-gather', skip the test if image can't be retrieved from quay.io.
  • Moved a few more tests to sequential
    • Any test that logs in to Argo CD via Argo CD CLI needs to be sequential
    • For others it wasn't incorrect to put them in parallel, but the code tested is affected by multiple simultaneous ArgoCD CRs, so it's safer to including them in sequential. It also helps further debug if they fail again.
  • Misc cleanup
    • In cases where fixture package alias was missing, I added it
    • In test/openshift/e2e/ginkgo/sequential/1-120_repo_server_system_ca_trust.go, moved the variables out of package scope

📝 Summary

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Tests
    • Improved end-to-end test reliability through consistent fixture helpers and targeted resource updates.
    • Streamlined Argo CD availability and deployment validation checks.
    • Reorganized selected tests for sequential execution to reduce interference.
    • Expanded diagnostic output with StatefulSet details while continuing after individual command failures.
    • Improved cleanup for skipped scenarios and unsupported environments.
    • Reduced sensitive test output by masking details and logging summary information only.

Walkthrough

The pull request standardizes fixture aliases across OpenShift E2E tests, uses fixture callbacks for resource updates, moves selected tests to sequential execution, improves route lookup and diagnostics, and expands system CA trust test wiring.

Changes

Fixture foundations

Layer / File(s) Summary
Fixture aliases and diagnostics
test/openshift/e2e/ginkgo/fixture/...
Certificate, Argo CD, Kubernetes, and debug helpers now use explicit aliases. Debug output includes StatefulSet information and logs command failures.
Route admission lookup
test/openshift/e2e/ginkgo/fixture/argocd/fixture.go
The default server Route is retrieved by name and checked until its ingress is admitted.

Parallel tests

Layer / File(s) Summary
Fixture alias migration and validation
test/openshift/e2e/ginkgo/parallel/*
Parallel tests use explicit fixture aliases. Repository server validation uses reusable eventual and continuous checks.
Callback-based resource updates
test/openshift/e2e/ginkgo/parallel/1-126_validate_declarative_webhook_secrets_test.go, test/openshift/e2e/ginkgo/parallel/1-132_validate_sensitive_annotation_masking_test.go
Argo CD and Secret updates use fixture callbacks. Route data is logged on CLI login failure.

Sequential tests

Layer / File(s) Summary
Sequential suite classification
test/openshift/e2e/ginkgo/sequential/1-012_validate-managed-by-chain_test.go, test/openshift/e2e/ginkgo/sequential/1-025-validate-managed-by-change_test.go, test/openshift/e2e/ginkgo/sequential/1-067_validate_redis_secure_comm_no_autotls_ha_test.go, test/openshift/e2e/ginkgo/sequential/1-121_validate_custom_labels_rollouts.go
Selected tests now use sequential packages, suite descriptions, and clean-slate setup.
Fixture helper migration
test/openshift/e2e/ginkgo/sequential/*
Tests use aliased fixture matchers and callback-based updates for namespaces, ConfigMaps, Argo CD resources, ClusterRoles, and CSVs.
Validation and cleanup
test/openshift/e2e/ginkgo/sequential/1-040_validate_quoted_RBAC_group_names_test.go, test/openshift/e2e/ginkgo/sequential/1-064_validate_tcp_reset_error_test.go, test/openshift/e2e/ginkgo/sequential/1-067_validate_redis_secure_comm_no_autotls_ha_test.go, test/openshift/e2e/ginkgo/sequential/1-120_validate_running_must_gather.go
Unused route checks were removed. Redis output is reduced and filtered. Validation waits increased. Temporary must-gather data is removed before skipping.

System CA trust test

Layer / File(s) Summary
Explicit test dependencies and reconciliation state
test/openshift/e2e/ginkgo/sequential/1-120_repo_server_system_ca_trust.go
The test passes explicit clients, contexts, image versions, Helm sources, and cleanup capability through its helpers and Argo CD specifications.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~25 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 5cd28

The E2E login diagnostics can turn a transient Route lookup failure into an immediate test failure, reducing the intended reliability improvement. Make Route diagnostics best-effort before merging.
