Meetings
|
|
=========
|
|
The OpenStackClient team meets regularly on every Thursday. For details
|
|
please refer to the `OpenStack IRC meetings`_ page.

Tox prerequisites and installation
|
|
===================================
|
|
|
|
Install the prerequisites for Tox:
|
|
|
|
* On Ubuntu or Debian:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: bash
|
|
|
|
$ apt-get install gcc gettext python-dev libxml2-dev libxslt1-dev \
|
|
zlib1g-dev
|
|
|
|
You may need to use pip install for some packages.
|
|
|
|
|
|
* On RHEL or CentOS including Fefora:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: bash
|
|
|
|
$ yum install gcc python-devel libxml2-devel libxslt-devel
|
|
|
|
* On openSUSE or SUSE linux Enterprise:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: bash
|
|
|
|
$ zypper install gcc python-devel libxml2-devel libxslt-devel
|
|
|
|
Install python-tox:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: bash
|
|
|
|
$ pip install tox
|
|
|
|
To run the full suite of tests maintained within OpenStackClient.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: bash
|
|
|
|
$ tox
|
|
|
|
.. NOTE::
|
|
|
|
The first time you run ``tox``, it will take additional time to build
|
|
virtualenvs. You can later use the ``-r`` option with ``tox`` to rebuild
|
|
your virtualenv in a similar manner.
|
|
|
|
|
|
To run tests for one or more specific test environments(for example, the most common configuration of
|
|
Python 2.7 and PEP-8), list the environments with the ``-e`` option, separated by spaces:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: bash
|
|
|
|
$ tox -e py27,pep8
|
|
|
|
See ``tox.ini`` for the full list of available test environments.
|
|
|
|
Running functional tests
|
|
========================
|
|
|
|
OpenStackClient also maintains a set of functional tests that are optimally
|
|
designed to be run against OpenStack's gate. Optionally, a developer may
|
|
choose to run these tests against any OpenStack deployment, however depending
|
|
on the services available, results vary.
|
|
|
|
To run the entire suite of functional tests:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: bash
|
|
|
|
$ tox -e functional
|
|
|
|
To run a specific functional test:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: bash
|
|
|
|
$ tox -e functional -- --regex functional.tests.compute.v2.test_server
|
|
|
|
Running with PDB
|
|
================
|
|
|
|
Using PDB breakpoints with ``tox`` and ``testr`` normally does not work since
|
|
the tests fail with a `BdbQuit` exception rather than stopping at the
|
|
breakpoint.
|
|
|
|
To run with PDB breakpoints during testing, use the `debug` ``tox`` environment
|
|
rather than ``py27``. For example, passing a test name since you will normally
|
|
only want to run the test that hits your breakpoint:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: bash
|
|
|
|
$ tox -e debug opentackclient.tests.identity.v3.test_group
|
|
|
|
For reference, the `debug`_ ``tox`` environment implements the instructions
|
|
|
|
.. _`debug`: https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Testr#Debugging_.28pdb.29_Tests
|
|
|
|
|
|
Building the Documentation
|
|
--------------------------
|
|
|
|
The documentation is generated with Sphinx using the ``tox`` command. To
|
|
create HTML docs, run the commands:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: bash
|
|
|
|
$ tox -e docs
|
|
|
|
The resultant HTML will be in the ``doc/build/html`` directory.
|
|
|
|
Release Notes
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
The release notes for a patch should be included in the patch. See the
|
|
`Project Team Guide`_ for more information on using reno in OpenStack.
|
|
|
|
.. _`Project Team Guide`: http://docs.openstack.org/project-team-guide/release-management.html#managing-release-notes
|
|
|
|
If any of the following applies to the patch, a release note is required:
|
|
|
|
* The deployer needs to take an action when upgrading
|
|
* The plugin interface changes
|
|
* A new feature is implemented
|
|
* A command or option is removed
|
|
* Current behavior is changed
|
|
* A security bug is fixed
|
|
|
|
Reno is used to generate release notes. Use the commands:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: bash
|
|
|
|
$ tox -e venv -- reno new <bug-,bp-,whatever>
|
|
|
|
Then edit the sample file that was created and push it with your change.
|
|
|
|
To run the commands and see results:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: bash
|
|
|
|
$ git commit # Commit the change because reno scans git log.
|
|
|
|
$ tox -e releasenotes
|
|
|
|
At last, look at the generated release notes files in ``releasenotes/build/html`` in your browser.
|
|
|
|
Testing new code
|
|
----------------
|
|
|
|
If a developer wants to test new code (feature, command or option) that
|
|
they have written, OpenStackClient may be installed from source by running
|
|
the following commands in the base directory of the project:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: bash
|
|
|
|
$ python setup.py develop
|
|
|
|
or
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: bash
|
|
|
|
$ pip install -e .
|
