Removed context object while logging as Nova uses oslo.context's RequestContext which means the context object is in scope when doing logging. Added hack to notify, in case if someone uses it in logging statements in future. Change-Id: I5aaa869f2e6155964827e659d18e2bcaad9d866b Closes-Bug:#1500896

Nova Style Commandments
|
|
=======================
|
|
|
|
- Step 1: Read the OpenStack Style Commandments

|
|
- Step 2: Read on
|
|
|
|
Nova Specific Commandments
|
|
---------------------------
|
|
|
|
- ``nova.db`` imports are not allowed in ``nova/virt/*``
|
|
- [N309] no db session in public API methods (disabled)
|
|
This enforces a guideline defined in ``oslo.db.sqlalchemy.session``
|
|
- [N310] timeutils.utcnow() wrapper must be used instead of direct calls to
|
|
datetime.datetime.utcnow() to make it easy to override its return value in tests
|
|
- [N311] importing code from other virt drivers forbidden
|
|
Code that needs to be shared between virt drivers should be moved
|
|
into a common module
|
|
- [N312] using config vars from other virt drivers forbidden
|
|
Config parameters that need to be shared between virt drivers
|
|
should be moved into a common module
|
|
- [N313] capitalize help string
|
|
Config parameter help strings should have a capitalized first letter
|
|
- [N314] vim configuration should not be kept in source files.
|
|
- [N316] Change assertTrue(isinstance(A, B)) by optimal assert like
|
|
assertIsInstance(A, B).
|
|
- [N317] Change assertEqual(type(A), B) by optimal assert like
|
|
assertIsInstance(A, B)
|
|
- [N318] Change assertEqual(A, None) or assertIs(A, None) to optimal assert
|
|
like assertIsNone(A)
|
|
- [N319] Validate that debug level logs are not translated.
|
|
- [N320] Setting CONF.* attributes directly in tests is forbidden. Use
|
|
self.flags(option=value) instead.
|
|
- [N321] Validate that LOG messages, except debug ones, have translations
|
|
- [N322] Method's default argument shouldn't be mutable
|
|
- [N323] Ensure that the _() function is explicitly imported to ensure proper translations.
|
|
- [N324] Ensure that jsonutils.%(fun)s must be used instead of json.%(fun)s
|
|
- [N325] str() and unicode() cannot be used on an exception. Remove use or use six.text_type()
|
|
- [N326] Translated messages cannot be concatenated. String should be included in translated message.
|
|
- [N327] Do not use xrange(). xrange() is not compatible with Python 3. Use range() or six.moves.range() instead.
|
|
- [N328] Validate that LOG.info messages use _LI.
|
|
- [N329] Validate that LOG.exception messages use _LE.
|
|
- [N330] Validate that LOG.warning and LOG.warn messages use _LW.
|
|
- [N332] Check that the api_version decorator is the first decorator on a method
|
|
- [N334] Change assertTrue/False(A in/not in B, message) to the more specific
|
|
assertIn/NotIn(A, B, message)
|
|
- [N335] Check for usage of deprecated assertRaisesRegexp
|
|
- [N336] Must use a dict comprehension instead of a dict constructor with a sequence of key-value pairs.
|
|
- [N337] Don't import translation in tests
|
|
- [N338] Change assertEqual(A in B, True), assertEqual(True, A in B),
|
|
assertEqual(A in B, False) or assertEqual(False, A in B) to the more specific
|
|
assertIn/NotIn(A, B)
|
|
- [N339] Check common raise_feature_not_supported() is used for v2.1 HTTPNotImplemented response.
|
|
- [N340] Check nova.utils.spawn() is used instead of greenthread.spawn() and eventlet.spawn()
|
|
- [N341] contextlib.nested is deprecated
|
|
- [N342] Config options should be in the central location ``nova/conf/``
|
|
- [N343] Check for common double word typos
|
|
- [N344] Python 3: do not use dict.iteritems.
|
|
- [N345] Python 3: do not use dict.iterkeys.
|
|
- [N346] Python 3: do not use dict.itervalues.
|
|
- [N348] Deprecated library function os.popen()
|
|
- [N349] Check for closures in tests which are not used
|
|
- [N350] Policy registration should be in the central location ``nova/policies/``
|
|
- [N351] Do not use the oslo_policy.policy.Enforcer.enforce() method.
|
|
- [N352] LOG.warn is deprecated. Enforce use of LOG.warning.
|
|
- [N353] Validate that context objects is not passed in logging calls.
|

|
Creating Unit Tests
|
|
-------------------
|
|
For every new feature, unit tests should be created that both test and
|
|
(implicitly) document the usage of said feature. If submitting a patch for a
|
|
bug that had no unit test, a new passing unit test should be added. If a
|
|
submitted bug fix does have a unit test, be sure to add a new one that fails
|
|
without the patch and passes with the patch.
|
|
|
|
For more information on creating unit tests and utilizing the testing
|
|
infrastructure in OpenStack Nova, please read ``nova/tests/unit/README.rst``.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Running Tests
|
|
-------------
|
|
The testing system is based on a combination of tox and testr. The canonical
|
|
approach to running tests is to simply run the command ``tox``. This will
|
|
create virtual environments, populate them with dependencies and run all of
|
|
the tests that OpenStack CI systems run. Behind the scenes, tox is running
|
|
``testr run --parallel``, but is set up such that you can supply any additional
|
|
testr arguments that are needed to tox. For example, you can run:
|
|
``tox -- --analyze-isolation`` to cause tox to tell testr to add
|
|
--analyze-isolation to its argument list.
|
|
|
|
Python packages may also have dependencies that are outside of tox's ability
|
|
to install. Please refer to ``doc/source/development.environment.rst`` for
|
|
a list of those packages on Ubuntu, Fedora and Mac OS X.
|
|
|
|
To run a single or restricted set of tests, pass a regex that matches
|
|
the class name containing the tests as an extra ``tox`` argument;
|
|
e.g. ``tox -- TestWSGIServer`` (note the double-hypen) will test all
|
|
WSGI server tests from ``nova/tests/unit/test_wsgi.py``; ``--
|
|
TestWSGIServer.test_uri_length_limit`` would run just that test, and
|
|
``-- TestWSGIServer|TestWSGIServerWithSSL`` would run tests from both
|
|
classes.
|
|
|
|
It is also possible to run the tests inside of a virtual environment
|
|
you have created, or it is possible that you have all of the dependencies
|
|
installed locally already. In this case, you can interact with the testr
|
|
command directly. Running ``testr run`` will run the entire test suite. ``testr
|
|
run --parallel`` will run it in parallel (this is the default incantation tox
|
|
uses.) More information about testr can be found at:
|
|
http://wiki.openstack.org/testr
|
|
|
|
Building Docs
|
|
-------------
|
|
Normal Sphinx docs can be built via the setuptools ``build_sphinx`` command. To
|
|
do this via ``tox``, simply run ``tox -e docs``,
|
|
which will cause a virtualenv with all of the needed dependencies to be
|
|
created and then inside of the virtualenv, the docs will be created and
|
|
put into doc/build/html.
|
|
|
|
Building a PDF of the Documentation
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
If you'd like a PDF of the documentation, you'll need LaTeX and ImageMagick
|
|
installed, and additionally some fonts. On Ubuntu systems, you can get what you
|
|
need with::
|
|
|
|
apt-get install texlive-full imagemagick
|
|
|
|
Then you can use the ``build_latex_pdf.sh`` script in tools/ to take care
|
|
of both the sphinx latex generation and the latex compilation. For example::
|
|
|
|
tools/build_latex_pdf.sh
|
|
|
|
The script must be run from the root of the Nova repository and it'll copy the
|
|
output pdf to Nova.pdf in that directory.
