        It has been found that the pre-submit test definitions that utilize GitHub Actions can report success even when there are failing tests. The failure detection depended on make returning a non-zero exit code on failures, which doesn't seem to work.

        Instead, we should check the "test-summary.txt" result file for the string "TEST SUCCESS". If it isn't found, the tests must have failed.

        Also, due to the low amount of disk space available on the virtual machines executing these tests, we should disable generation of core dumps in order to get to the point where test failures can be detected.
