New test process
Some notes from #mer channel at 23.4.2012 from 12:34 onwards:
- Separating test-definition from the test packaging
- New test-definition/metadata defines test case
- Same information than in the current test-definition
- Architectural domain and subdomain/feature
- HW (chroot or device or both)
- Defines requirements, eg. needs 3G network or test data
- Defines provides, eg. provides 3G network
- Defines dependencies to packages 0-*
- Same information than in the current test-definition
- Metadata files are stored in version control
- Can be automatically updated to a database
- Testing changed packages first, then integration testing?
- This requires lots of changes and work. We could use the current tools for simple testing and start developing the new process on the side.
- New testrunner could be written in Python or similar language
Test mapping / Test plan configuration
- Test request comes in. The request has parameters such as stage and "changed packages" list
- Testplanner reads the configuration/mapping file and creates test plan(s)
- Kickstart files are delivered to image builder and test plans for test automation
Mapping/configuration file:
name: Release testing devices: - chroot ots-device: mer-chroot kickstart: chroot-release.ks - virtual ots-device: mer-virtual-i686 kickstart: virtual-image-core.ks - n900 ots-device: mer-n900 kickstart: nemo-n900.ks default options: - chroot: filter: "hardware=chroot" - all: test package suffix: "-tests" default packages: - chroot: - mer-core-chroot-tests - all: - mer-core-sanity-tests packages: - alc: filter: "name=unittests" versio: < 1.5.0 device: [virtual n900] - bluez - qt5base: test packages: - mwts-location-tests filter: "type=functional" versio: 2.3.1 device: [virtual n900] - qt5base-unittests
Description:
- devices: a list of devices for the tests are executed
- ots-device: device name in the OTS (test automation)
- kickstart: mapping kickstart files to devices
- default options: default options for devices
- filter: filter options to testrunner-lite
- test package suffix: if test package(s) are not defined for a package, then trying to use "original package name + suffix" test package. See the bluez package below.
- default packages: a list of test packages that are always executed
- packages: the actual package mapping
- filter: filter options to testrunner-lite
- version: package version to use
- device: on which devices to execute the test
- test packages: list of test packages and their configurations
