Hi, there are many ways to do it. Avocado can read parameters via command line, config files (aka cartesian config) and YAML configs. Parameters from all these sources are merged together before run and used in tests. Avocado prints parameters used in test before running it (see output with --show-job-log).
The simpliest way for you is using command line. Just pass qemu_bin value via extra params: $ avocado run --show-job-log io-github-autotest-qemu.boot --vt-extra-params qemu_bin=/bin/true or special special option for overriding QEMU binary - "--vt-qemu-bin": $ avocado run --show-job-log io-github-autotest-qemu.boot --vt-qemu-bin /bin/true Sergey чт, 23 авг. 2018 г. в 6:44, Eduardo Habkost <ehabk...@redhat.com>: > Hi, > > I am reading the docs about test parameters[1][2][3], and I > learned how to access them inside the test code.
