Tests located in this folter test/local are local tests. Local tests are executed in the base-test container, the integration-test container will also work, but without spawning a chroot or kvm environment that needs to be accessed via ssh. The local tests are run directly in the container. The goal is to be able to write tests for the Garden Linux build pipeline.
The configuration file for this tests does not need the features to be set, if set it will be ignored. The configuration contains a dictionary, the key should be the name of the test and under the key the configuration options for this specific test are defined. If a test does not have any configuration options it can be left out of the configuration file.
To select a specific test to be executed instead of running all local tests, the -k EXPRESSION pytest option can be used. See the pytest --help for a more detailed explanation.
local:
# configuration parameters for tests separated by test names
oci:
# Path to a final artifact. Represents the .tar.xz archive image file (required)
image: /build/kvm_dev_oci-amd64-today-local.oci.tar.xz
kernel: /build/kvm_dev_oci-amd64-today-local.vmlinuz
This test does several steps using the results of a build with _oci feature:
- verify neccessary testconfig options are present (image, kernel)
- install the docker-registry into the container, provide a config, start the registry
- extracts the testconfig["image"] file to retrieve the OCI fs layout
- tag the extracted OCI image for uploading to the registry on localhost
- push the OCI image to the local registry
- retrieve the url for the kernel file out of the OCI image
- download the kernel image
- compare the downloaded kernel with the testconfig["kernel"]
Configuration options:
- oci contains the configuration options for local test
test_oci- image the build result image used within the tests
- kernel the name for the builded kernel
