This Git repo contains all the functional tests run for various packages and roles in the CentOS build + release process
filesystem layout:
tests/ : contains all test scripts
tests/0_lib/ : contains all the common functions and shared code for
the tests all files in that directory are 'sourced'
before any of the tests are run, which also means it
can only contain bash code ( no subdir allowed )
tests/_common/ : Contain's testst that are run before any other test,
and immediately after the 0_lib/ code is sourced.
These should be tests that check system sanity and
environment. These tests should also not leave behind
any state or content residue that would impact package
and role specific tests that are run after
tests/p_<name>/ : Each of the p_<name> directories would contain tests
for that specific package. The <name> needs to be -
rpm --qf "%{name}\n" for the srpm.
All package tests are run on a machine which has a minimal
install. Its not possible, at this time, to have a kickstart
attached with the package tests.
tests/r_<role> : Each of the r_<role> directories should contain the tests
specific to a role. eg: 'lamp'. The test harness looks at
a file called 'pacakge_deps' inside each of the role directories
and runs the role tests if any package listed in that file
has been changed / built etc.
Role tests can be run with specific kickstarts. At the moment
each role can have 1 kickstart file. It must be called
ks_<role>.cfg and it must be in the tests/r_<role>/ directory
notes...
- each of the directories are parsed in alphabetical order, so its possible
to set some sort of a run order by using <number>_<TestName>
- if tests are written in any language other than bash, its upto the test
to install the required environment ( including python, ruby, perl.. )
