Auto test

this the the auto test intro for keepod-installer based on autopilot

Pre-required software

download the pre-required software, including python and autopilot-desktop;

• apt-based GNU/Linux Distribution (debian, ubuntu, mint, etc)

    $ sudo apt-get install autopilot-desktop
  

Build

get source from github, commands as below:

$ git clone https://github.com/Keepod/keepod-installer.git

build the keepod-installer from source;

$ cd path/to/source/of/keepod-installer

$ ./build-nostatic

Test

out auto test is based on autopilot, and we can make tests all by once, and we can get the list of test routines, and make one test one time.

All Test

we can launch the test script and then all the tests will be executed one by one. Below is the commands that we need:

$ cd ./test/autopilot

$ ./launch_test.sh

Manually Test

If we want to test one routine one time, first we have to know all the test routines, and then we can launch one each time.

• list all the test routines:

    $ cd ./test/autopilot
    $ autopilot list installer
  

  and the results will be as below:

    installer.tests.test_basic_process.BasicProcessTests.test_multi_udisk_installing_with_local_img
    installer.tests.test_basic_process.BasicProcessTests.test_single_udisk_downloading_cancel_and_continue_with_net_image
    installer.tests.test_basic_process.BasicProcessTests.test_single_udisk_installing_with_local_img
    installer.tests.test_basic_process.BasicProcessTests.test_single_udisk_md5_check
    installer.tests.test_basic_process.BasicProcessTests.test_single_udisk_writting_cancel_and_continue_with_local_img
    
    5 total tests.
  

• lanch the test we want, we launch installer.tests.test_basic_process.BasicProcessTests.test_single_udisk_installing_with_local_img as example:

    $ autopilot run installer.tests.test_basic_process.BasicProcessTests.test_single_udisk_installing_with_local_img
  

Note:

• for all the tests, we have at least one udisk mounted.
• when we launch xxxx_with_local_img routine, we have to copy the image file (keepod-latest.zip) to /test/autopilot/installer/tests .
