mapred_verify

Overview

mapred_verify is a collection of unit tests for Riak’s MapReduce system

Quick Start

Prerequisites

The mapred_verify tests use Riak’s native Erlang interface, and the paths to the beams implementing that interface are described in terms of the Riak source tree. So, you will need a copy of Riak checked out and built locally in order to use mapred_verify.

You will also need Erlang OTP R13B04 or later installed.

Building

Before using mapred_verify, you’ll need to compile it. Simple type make at the commandline. The compilation should produce an executable script named mapred_verify.

Usage

To use mapred_verify, run the script with two command line parameters: -s specifying the Erlang node name of the Riak node to connect to, and -c specifying the base directory of your Riak source tree:

$ RIAK_NODE=riak@127.0.0.1
$ RIAK_SRC=/Users/foobar/riak
$ ./mapred_verify -s $RIAK_NODE -c $RIAK_SRC

If running mapred_verify as above, with no other commandline arguments, runs without error, then you have built everything and specified arguments correctly. If you see errors printed, please consult the Troubleshooting section.

The mapred_verify script has two phases: populate (-p) and run (-j). The first time you run mapred_verify, you must populate the dataset on which the tests will run by specifying -p true on the command line:

$ ./mapred_verify -s $RIAK_NODE -c $RIAK_SRC -p true
Clearing old data from <<"mr_validate">>
Populating new data to <<"mr_validate">>

A successful population run should produce output similar to that given above: two messages about clearing and populating data, including the bucket name being used.

Once the sample dataset has been loaded, you may run the tests by specifying -j true:

$ ./mapred_verify -s $RIAK_NODE -c $RIAK_SRC -j true

You do not need to repopulate the dataset between tests, unless you delete your Riak data.

When all tests pass, output should look similar to the capture above. Each test case is run in four different ways:

  • specifying a specific list of bucket/key pairs (“discrete entries”)
  • processing an entire bucket (“full bucket”)
  • using keyfilters (“filtered bucket”)
  • specifying a non-existent bucket/key pair (“missing object”)

Passing tests should print “OK” and an execution time (in milliseconds), while failing tests will print “FAIL”.

Options

The mapred_verify script accepts three options, in addition to those described in the Quick Start.

The first option is -k, the “key count”. In the populate phase, this option specifies the number of objects to create. In the test-running phase, this option specifies the size of the available input set. It is generally a good idea to specify the same -k for your populate and test-run phases – the full-bucket and filtered-bucket tests will fail validation if you do otherwise. This option should be specified as an integer, and it defaults to 1000.

The next option is -b, the “object size”. This option is only used in the populate phase. It specifies how large the value of each object should be. It is specified as an integer number of bytes or kilobytes, with the suffix, either b or k, determining which unit to use (e.g. “100b” means 100 bytes, with “48k” means 48 kilobytes).

The final option is -f, the “test filename”. This option allows you to specify which file defines the tests to run. The test definition file is an Erlang-format file, ready for use with file:consult/1. Each entry should be of the form {Name::string(), {MapReduceQuery::list(), VerificationFunction::atom()}}.. This option is specified as a path, and defaults to “priv/tests.def”.

Troubleshooting

ERROR: Path for … not found or doesn’t point to a directory

mapred_verify was unable to find the compiled Erlang files that implement Riak’s native interface. Check the path you provided in the -c command line parameter. The directory you provided should include deps/riak_core/ebin, and deps/riak_kv/ebin, each containing many *.beam files.

escript: exception error: … {could_not_reach_node,’…’}

mapred_verify was unable to connect to your Riak node. Check the node name you provided in the -s command line parameter. Your Riak node should be running, and using that name.

mapred_verify also assumes that your node is using the cookie ’riak’. If that is incorrect, please edit src/mapred_verify.erl (search for the line with erlang:set_cookie) and recompile, or change the cookie for your Riak node.
