Hi @amolenaar, this looks great to me! I noticed that Workbench also recently started using mutter, maybe there is a tip we can learn from their workflow? https://github.com/workbenchdev/Workbench/blob/main/.github/workflows/CI.yaml

I think the approach is pretty similar. I prefer executing the tests as sub-process of mutter over starting it as a service. I do not see them launch a dbus session, or XDG_RUNTIME_DIR variable, but I guess that's because they're relying on Flatpak for the testing. |
