This is a simple branch-based test creation, management, and execution environment.
This repo contains:
| chroot/ | A self-contained and versioned environment for executing tests |
|---|---|
| tests/test.py | The test entry point. Contains an initial example test. |
| bin/run-test.sh | A script for executing a particular test (see below) |
| bin/setup-chroot.sh | A script for preparing and executing in the chroot environment |
Here are the steps for creating a test for a bug (e.g., EUCA-1234) IMPORTANT: NEVER modify the master branch. Always use a seperate branch per test. 1. Create a branch for your test:
git checkout -b EUCA-1234 master
2. Modify tests/test.py to do whatever is needed. Additional files should go into tests/ so they can be setup for execution in the chroot. 3. Commit changes you are ready to try
git commit -m 'Commit my awesome test' tests/
4. Try your test out
./bin/run-test.sh EUCA-1234 /path/to/my-cloud.conf
5. Find the output of the test by the dated branch name created
git branch | grep EUCA-1234
6. Debug your test by dropping into the chroot and running it by hand
./bin/setup-chroot.sh /bin/bash -i /root/tests/test.py /root/cloud.conf exit
