Hi all,
I am a vdsm developer. Recently I find there're many ongoing
refactorings and improvements in vdsm code. From the bugs reported, we
can see that unit tests just focus on a unit of code, and can't catch
integration errors or broad system level errors. So we need a thorough
functional test suites for vdsm. But the build environment is very
limited to run functional tests. It has a lot of dependencies on the
external setup, like storage server.
I would like to know how the engine side perform functional tests. Is
there any existing functional test suites based engine rest api? If yes,
I think it's great to use it for vdsm's functional tests. We could build
up a standard test env on physical machiness or vms for the test suites
by some kickstart files. It also can be integrate into Jenkins.
Hey,
with oVirt Node we've had a similar problem. That functional tets
required a running system (VM or real hardware). We've come up with igor
[0], which prepares VMs or real systems using PXE and custom kernel
arguments. Afterwards a client is run on the freshly created system to
run our functional tests. Basically you can point igor to an ISO which
is being booted using custom kernel arguments, so you should also be
able to install RHEL or Fedora using this method (I've never tried it
though ..).
We've also integrated this tests into Jenkins (currently only run RH
internal, b/c of upstream limitations [which might have changed by
now]).

I think we reached a point we need to add an environment capable of
running system tests covering both engine and vdsm.
