Scenario Erasure of the overlayfs read-write branch on shutdown
Before features/support/hooks.rb:269 0.003
Steps
Given I have started Tails from DVD without network and logged in 9.028
And I prepare Tails for memory erasure tests 0.402
When I fill a 128 MiB file with a known pattern on the root filesystem 15.995
# ensure the pattern is in memory due to tmpfs, not to disk cache
And I drop all kernel caches 2.462
Then patterns cover at least 128 MiB in the guest's memory 2.680

Pattern coverage: 100.000% (128 MiB out of 128 MiB reference memory)

When I trigger shutdown 0.013
Then I find very few patterns in the guest's memory after 20 seconds 22.909
13.898% of the free memory still has the pattern, but less than 0.800% was expected.
<false> is not true. (Test::Unit::AssertionFailedError)
