I dare to challenge the 'timing issue' :) For a test I changed the openQA code to wait 5 minutes before clicking connect in gnome-shell; 5 minutes ought to be enough for really about everything Test scheduled as https://openqa.opensuse.org/tests/1847618 The test failed - as it did before. The 5 minute gap can be observed between https://openqa.opensuse.org/tests/1847618#step/yast2_network_use_nm/7 and https://openqa.opensuse.org/tests/1847618#step/NM_wpa2_enterprise/1 (clock moved by 5 minutes)
