In general if the test is reported as "broken" that means it's an
infrastructure failure.

I looked at the log and in this case I think it's because the previous
state of the disk, as left by the previous use of this test machine,
was weird in a way that triggers a bug in debian-installer and
prevents the first and second attempts to wipe the disk and reinstall
- but not the third.

Ian.
