Good point. The tests seem to work the same way in both X11 and Wayland. I'm looking into getSystemSelection() and if there is any display server specific code related to clipboards.

Currently tests look stable when I run on Wayland locally. It might be good to test it on Wayland CI node as well since these tests had stability issues.
