Hmm, but the machines I'm running this one are more or less stateless, and the scripts literally download gigabytes of images, which also takes a long time. This would need more thinking if we would want to use that as systemd test. > Anyway ... you'll find that running these tests is a bit more complex > and involved.

I would have thought about installing Cockpit onto the test machine and then run some scripts that remote-control the local web interface via tools such as Cucumber or RTest. Wouldn't something like that suffice and make the test setup a whole lot easier to use?
