Running tests
|
|
=============
|
|
|
|
Kolla-ansible contains a suit of tests in the ``tests`` directory.
|
|
|
|
Any proposed code change in gerrit is automatically rejected by the OpenStack
|
|
Jenkins server [#f1]_ if the change causes test failures.
|
|
|
|
It is recommended for developers to run the test suite before submitting patch
|
|
for review. This allows to catch errors as early as possible.
|
|
|
|
Preferred way to run the tests
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
The preferred way to run the unit tests is using ``tox``. It executes tests in
|
|
isolated environment, by creating separate virtualenv and installing
|
|
dependencies from the ``requirements.txt`` and ``test-requirements.txt`` files,
|
|
so the only package you install is ``tox`` itself:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: console
|
|
|
|
$ pip install tox
|
|
|
|
See `the unit testing section of the Testing wiki page`_ for more information.
|
|
Following are some simple examples.
|
|
|
|
To run the Python 2.7 tests:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: console
|
|
|
|
$ tox -e py27
|
|
|
|
To run the style tests:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: console
|
|
|
|
$ tox -e pep8
|
|
|
|
To run multiple tests separate items by commas:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: console
|
|
|
|
$ tox -e py27,py34,pep8
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
Running a subset of tests
|
|
-------------------------
|
|
|
|
Instead of running all tests, you can specify an individual directory, file,
|
|
class or method that contains test code, i.e. filter full names of tests by a
|
|
string.
|
|
|
|
To run the tests located only in the ``kolla-ansible/tests``
|
|
directory use:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: console
|
|
|
|
$ tox -e py27 kolla-ansible.tests
|
|
|
|
To run the tests of a specific file say ``kolla-ansible/tests/test_kolla_docker.py``:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: console
|
|
|
|
$ tox -e py27 test_kolla_docker
|
|
|
|
To run the tests in the ``ModuleArgsTest`` class in
|
|
the ``kolla-ansible/tests/test_kolla_docker.py`` file:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: console
|
|
|
|
$ tox -e py27 test_kolla_docker.ModuleArgsTest
|
|
|
|
To run the ``ModuleArgsTest.test_module_args`` test method in
|
|
the ``kolla-ansible/tests/test_kolla_docker.py`` file:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: console
|
|
|
|
$ tox -e py27 test_kolla_docker.ModuleArgsTest.test_module_args
|
|
|
|
Debugging unit tests
|
|
------------------------
|
|
|
|
In order to break into the debugger from a unit test we need to insert
|
|
a breaking point to the code:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
import pdb; pdb.set_trace()
|
|
|
|
Then run ``tox`` with the debug environment as one of the following::
|
|
|
|
tox -e debug
|
|
tox -e debug test_file_name.TestClass.test_name
|
|
|
|

|
