Quick fix- CI failure- for number of found CV publish tasks

[damoore044]

Problem Statement

test_negative_publish_during_repo_sync: Sometimes, more than one content-view publish task is present,
so we should search that there are > 0, and get most recent task from search, [index 0].

• The reason seems to be because in this module, when the full session is run, an associated composite content-view still exists from another test, which will generate extra task(s).

Related Issues

CI failure for stream, 6.15.z combined sessions, because occasionally we find 2 or 3 matching tasks, instead of exactly 1.

You can get the task id of publish task and search for it. It will be unique and you will get a single task.

[damoore044]

Since the CV.publish() task fails from raised exception, it does not return task_id as it normally would, the method returns None.
Do you know if there's some way to workaround this?

[damoore044]

@shweta83 Also tried asynchronous Publish, it also returns None once exception is raised/caught.
Instead I've updated to narrow the search scope, for just the publish task(s) with the desired cv.name and org.name.
Let me know if this addresses your suggestion!

[shweta83]

task_search returns a task id which you can search in tasks and it will return a single task failed:
label='Actions::Katello::ContentView::Publish', output={}, pending=False, progress=1, result='error', started_at='2024-04-29 14:13:58 UTC', state='stopped', id='350e6a11-651b-408d-85df-09ea569296b1').

This id can be used to search that task

[damoore044]

in lines below, I get id from first entry in task_search, which returns like the output in your comment.
Then I poll that task by id and get failed output.
Am I missing something else or some other step for getting task id, other than ForemanTask.search()?
