Bareon functional testing
https://blueprints.launchpad.net/bareon/+spec/bareon-functional-testing
Problem description
Currently there are no functional tests in bareon. Tests that would cover full on-metal provisioning and a result - actual partition scheme / image applied to the node
Proposed change
NOTE: This is a contribution of the feature developed within Cray OpenStack project. We will try to make a minimum changes to existing code.
We are adding the new framework "bareon-func-test" to allow writing such kind of tests. This is a virsh-based tool that allows to walk through the full provisioning cycle and read the results from the node at each step. An overview of the framework can be found at [1]
The framework will reside in a separate repo called "bareon-func-test".
Functional tests, as well as node templates, provision.json templates (if any) are stored in the bareon tree (bareon/tests_functional/). The main idea behind this is that you can commit the new piece of functionality together with funcitonal tests covering it, and it's easier to track in CI.
- We are also adding a set of tests covering:
-
- partitioning operations on Ironic data driver
- lvm operations on Ironic data driver
- full provisioning on both swift/rsync deploy drivers and Ironic data driver.
Since the framework requires a ramdisk to run, test integration also includes a job to build a ramdisk from the current repo, and a tox env that manages build/test-run.
Alternatives
None.
