This repository is dedicated to host any tests written using the Avocado[1] API. It is being initially populated with tests ported from autotest client tests repository, but it's not limited by that.
Once you have the avocado installed, you can run the tests like below:
$ avocado run avocado-misc-tests/generic/stress.py
JOB ID : 0018adbc07c5d90d242dd6b341c87972b8f77a0b
JOB LOG : $HOME/avocado/job-results/job-2016-01-18T15.32-0018adb/job.log
TESTS : 1
(1/1) avocado-misc-tests/generic/stress.py:Stress.test: PASS (62.67 s)
RESULTS : PASS 1 | ERROR 0 | FAIL 0 | SKIP 0 | WARN 0 | INTERRUPT 0
JOB HTML : $HOME/avocado/job-results/job-2016-01-18T15.32-0018adb/html/results.html
TIME : 62.67 sTo run test that requires paramters, you'll need to populated the provided YAML files in the corresponding *.py.data directory. In each directory, there should be a README explaining what each parameter cooresponds to. Once you have the YAML file populated you can run the test like below:
# avocado run avocado-misc-tests/io/common/bootlist_test.py -m avocado-misc-tests/io/common/bootlist_test.py.data/bootlist_test_network.yaml

JOB TIME : 13.43 sTests are be organized per category basis, each category with its own directory. Additionally, the tests are categorized by the use of the following tags[2] by functional area:
- cpu - Exercises a system's CPU
- net - Exercises a system's network devices or networking stack
- storage - Exercises a system's local storage
- fs - Exercises a system's file system
Tags by architecture:
- x86_64 - Requires a x86_64 architecture
- power - Requires a Power architecture
Tags by access privileges:
- * privileged - requires the test to be run with the most privileged,
unrestricted privileges. For Linux systems, this usually means the root account
Note* * Most of these tests in the repository still support serial run (test scenarios) Please use --max-parallel-tasks=1 command line param which restricts nrunner to execute tests in serial flow
Examples can be like:
#avocado run --max-parallel-tasks=1 ras_lsvpd.py
