Package: autopkgtest
Version: 2.10
Severity: wishlist
Dear Martin, Ian and everybody,
I like autopkgtest, but the need to use either a virtual system or treat the
local system as if it were virtual raises the bar quite high.
I have some simple tests that do nothing else than running the upstream
tests, which themselves are very simple. I would be very happy if there
were a command that would take a source package as input and do nothing
else than running the tests declared in debian/tests/control.
More in particular, my problem is that the command “adt-run package.dsc ---
null” needs root access and is very invasive on the local system, while I only
want to run the tests on binary packages that I have freshly installed, on my
local system as it is.
Having such a facility would tremendously boost my capacity to write
autopkgtests that do not fail. As you have noticed in some reports that you
made on packages maintained by the Debian Med team, currently it takes a couple
of round trips to figure it out, and on my side it is caused by the strong
difficulty to test the tests in a trivial way.
Have a nice week-end, and thanks for your work on autopkgtest !

Source: autopkgtest
Binary: autopkgtest autopkgtest-xenlvm
Architecture: source all
Version: 2.11
Distribution: unstable
Urgency: medium
Maintainer: Autopkgtest team <[email protected]>
Changed-By: Martin Pitt <[email protected]>
Description:
autopkgtest - automatic as-installed testing for Debian packages
autopkgtest-xenlvm - autopkgtest Xen/LVM2 based testbed snapshot system
Closes: 742242
Changes:
autopkgtest (2.11) unstable; urgency=medium
.
* Add tools/adt-setup-vm: Setup script for vmdebootstrap (and potentially
others) to start a root shell on tty1, set up networking for eth0, and
enable deb-src apt sources.
* adt-virt-qemu.1: Describe how to create a suitable Debian VM with
vmdebootstrap.
* doc/README.package-tests: Point out to use "build-needed" with
consideration.
* Make installation of packages/dependencies print a warning instead of
failing immediately when root is not available on the testbed. This allows
tests to be run with the "null" runner locally as user with some
restrictions. Check if dpkg-source is available before installing
dpkg-dev, to avoid the warning in that simple case. (Closes: #742242)
* Fix ugly error message if a package does not have a debian/tests/
directory. Properly fail with code 8 and "SKIP no tests in this package".
* Clean up temporary files in NullRunner tests.
